Wasted with Kate  

Your No Crap Practical Guide to Waste Minimisation

 

Let’s face it: we’re all guilty of wasting stuff. Whether it’s throwing out leftovers, piling up plastic, or binge-buying clothes you’ll never wear—wasted is a way of life… but it doesn’t have to be!

 

Welcome to Wasted with Kate, where we’re here to help you reduce, reuse, and rethink the way you live, all while having a good laugh (because, seriously, who said you have to be perfect to be sustainable?).

Here’s how we can help you get started on your waste-reducing journey:

  • In-Person Events: Join us for inspiring events where you’ll learn all about practical, real-world waste minimisation tips.  We’re here to show you that living sustainably isn’t just about giving up your morning coffee cup . It’s about making small changes that can lead to big impacts—and we’ll have a blast while we’re at it. 

  • Online Courses: If you prefer learning in your PJs (who doesn’t?), our online waste minimisation courses are here to help. These courses break down everything you need to know about reducing waste in your everyday life—from  mindful consumption and eco-friendly alternatives. We’ll give you all the tools, tips, and tricks you need to cut down on waste, step by step. By the end of the course, you’ll be the go-to waste minimisation expert in your household—and maybe even your whole street.

At Wasted with Kate, we believe that small changes can make a big difference. So whether you're just starting your zero waste journey or looking for fresh ways to level up your sustainability game, we’ve got you covered.
