Pre-arrival information

We’re Scotland’s circular economy public body, working with government, business, and communities to rewire the economy from our current “take, make, waste” model to one where we make the most of the materials we have. A zero waste, circular economy is the right choice - for people, planet and prosperity.

A trained Chief Fire Warden and First Aid Representative are always present in the office. The daily health & safety cover is displayed on a board as you enter reception.

Our fire alarm is tested every Wednesday between 10:30 - 11:30am. If you are visiting on a Wednesday, please note that this is only a test, and no action is required.

In the event of a fire alarm at any other time than mentioned above, leave all your belongings and evacuate the building via the closest emergency exit, following any instructions from Fire Wardens. Make your way to the muster point at the front of the building and await further instruction.

First aid kits are available on both floors: the ground floor kit is located at reception, and the first-floor kit is in the upper-floor kitchen.

Getting to our office: We encourage active travel to our office, which is conveniently located near a variety of public transport options. More information about how to travel to our office.

Nearby cafes:  There are a few nearby options when it comes to cafes for sit in and takeaway, around the office area and we’re a short walk away from the centre of town, we’d be happy to point you in the right direction, just ask a member of our team.
