ACM are corporate sponsors of London Zoo - another organisation committed to the environment

ACM Waste Management Plc has chosen ZSL (the Zoological Society of London) as its nominated charity and become the London charity's first corporate partner.

ACM was looking for a London based charity that shares its commitment to protecting the environment and also works closely with children and the community. ZSL, which is dedicated to conservation and education and the worldwide preservation of animals and their habitats proved to be the perfect choice.

Barry Bolton, Chairman of ACM, explains:” In the past we have made donations to various different charities but we wanted to work with just one charity that shares the same environmental values as ACM.

“We have recently taken over ZSL's waste management and recycling function and as we became more closely involved it became clear that it was the perfect charity partner for ACM.

“I know I'm speaking for everyone at ACM when I say that the work we have done with ZSL so far has been a labour of love and we are looking forward to supporting them over the coming years.”

ACM is one of the UK's leading providers of complete waste management solutions and is committed to encouraging businesses to improve their environmental performance.

Barry adds: “Perhaps the biggest challenge now facing mankind is the threat of irreversible global climate change. We all need to face up to this challenge now and take steps to ensure that we prevent this from happening before it is too late.

“ZSL is a charity dedicated to the conservation of animals and their habitats, both of which are being affected by the negative impact of global climate change, so making them our chosen charity and helping them with their very important work is another way that ACM can help to make a positive difference.”
