Gordon Mackie Associates Ltd is pleased to announce that we are hosting a one day seminar, on Tuesday 13th March 2012, with the aim of exploring and highlighting opportunities to achieve service efficiencies in the area of waste management operations, including the possibility of joint working between local authorities and the potential interaction with the private sector.
The event is to be held at the Wrightington Hotel and Country Club, Moss Lane, Wrightington, Wigan, WN6 9PB. The venue is conveniently located immediately adjacent to Junction 27 of the M6, and is also in close proximity to links with the other motorways in the North West such as the M62 and M56.
