Where to recycle on site

At Lakeside North Harbour, environmental responsibility is more than a value—it’s a commitment we live by every day and sustainability is embedded in the way we operate.  That’s why we’re celebrating recycle week and highlighting our numerous recycling facilities on site.

Since the beginning of this year, over 60 tonnes of rubbish has been collected from Lakeside by our contractors Hippo Waste and 100% of it has been either recycled (20 tonnes) or processed for energy by them, helping to generate electricity and reduce landfill impact.

After the Simpler Food Recycling scheme was introduced earlier this year, and food waste was separated out in offices by our occupiers,  we have collected over 3.6 tonnes that is fully recycled. It has been transported to a recycling facility to be processed through anaerobic digestion, producing biogas and fertilizer or composting, creating nutrient-rich soil.  Thank you to everyone who has helped and participated in this initiative.

Our recycling infrastructure across the campus is designed to make it easy for occupiers to contribute to a greener future.   We encourage everyone to make use of our facilities to recycle where possible – here’s a list of where to do this on site;

Recycling Rooms – Building 1000

(West Wing next to the goods lift on the 1st, 2nd & 3rd Floors) 

These rooms are dedicated to dry mixed recycling only, including:

• Paper
• Cardboard
• Aluminium cans
• Recyclable plastics

Recycle Centre at the Loading Bay – B2000

Located at the loading bay, this area accepts:

• Dry mixed recycling (same as above)
• Glass bottles and jars only (no crockery)
• Food waste (food only, no packaging)
• WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment)
• Toner cartridges

Special Recycling Services

• Furniture Recycling
  Handled by an external supplier who will collect any unwanted furniture and assets, keeping them in use for longer by either re-using, donating or recycling. Please note: this service incurs a cost to the business using it.
• Clothing Donations
  Support the Ukrainian Charity onsite by donating and recycling clothes.
• Battery Recycling
  Available in recycling rooms in Building 1000 on the 2nd Floor and 3rd Floor West.
• Book Swap Station
  Located in the Winter Garden Café, Building 2000 and also next to the Amazon Lockers—a great way to share and discover new reads.

We encourage everyone on site to make use of these facilities and help us maintain our commitment to sustainability. Every item recycled is a step toward a cleaner, greener future.

If you have questions or suggestions about our recycling programme, feel free to reach out to the site management team via the Helpdesk.

World Photography Day was the perfect opportunity to test our Lakeside occupiers photography skills. We hosted a competition asking for images of site to be sent to our judging team who were not disappointed.

Lindsey from Viking MSA was chosen as our World Photography Day competition winner with his image ‘Fishing view with a guest’.

Our judges thought ‘Lindsey captured the lake brilliantly and from a perspective not seen by many. Managing to pick out the colours of the dragonfly adds further detail to what is already a strong black and white image full of leading lines, sharp angles in the reeds and contrasting softness in the foreboding sky.’

We would also like to thank our other entrants; the image below from Alisha being another stand out photo showing Lakeside from a different perspective.

Spanning over 18,000 sq ft, the Waterside Suite is a unique, flexible, ground-floor office space that offers a fantastic layout ideal for collaboration and innovation. The suite features a single floorplate, meaning there’s ample opportunity for your team to come together in an open and connected environment. It is designed for flexibility,
allowing you to create the space you need while enjoying the benefits of a beautiful, peaceful waterside location.

The Waterside Suite comes equipped with everything your team will need to succeed. This includes a fully integrated

In addition to its functional interior spaces, the Waterside Suite offers direct access to a spacious outdoor terrace
with spectacular views over the tranquil 19-acre lake. The serene setting makes this space perfect for outdoor meetings, a walk to refresh after a busy morning, or simply to relax and recharge in between tasks.

Here’s a guide to the space.

Lakeside North Harbour, Portsmouth’s leading workspace, has announced a new lettings agreement with Houlder, a leading consultancy in marine engineering and vessel design.

The business, which previously operated from offices in Chichester and Portsmouth, made the strategic decision to relocate its specialist teams under one roof in order to support their ongoing growth.

Their new space at Lakeside spans over 3,000 sq ft and is now home to 28 employees.

Houlder continues to invest in the future of the maritime sector, working closely with the University of Southampton, Maritime UK, and a range of partner organisations to encourage young talent into the industry through education, outreach and early career support.

Houlder is actively supporting clients with engineering expertise, project delivery, and sustainable maritime solutions, helping to strengthen the local maritime economy and accelerate the transition to cleaner technologies.

Simon Bateman, Asset Manager at Lakeside North Harbour, said: “The flexibility of Lakeside’s offering that blends traditional leasing with hybrid workspace options makes it an ideal choice for companies embracing flexible working models. Lakeside meets specific needs while remaining both scalable and environmentally responsible.

 “With a strong commitment to the region and the wider South Coast, Houlder’s values align closely with ours – from nurturing local talent to prioritising sustainability.” 

Jakki Hill, Director of Operations, People & Culture, added: “There are so many positive aspects to Lakeside, which made for a very easy decision for it to become our main people hub. It is the ideal space and location for us, in addition to all of the great amenities offered, events held on a regular basis and in particular the sustainable credentials. We have definitely benefitted from the recycling in and out! Sustainability is important to us as a company, not just in the work we do but also in our day-to-day operations.

 “Since being at Lakeside, an aspect which has stood out for us is the real feel of community. The facilities staff and other residents have all been incredibly friendly and supportive from the start, which makes you feel welcomed and at home”.
