After all, most golf courses worldwide do not have too many staff members, nor do they have a fixed budget and a long-term concept for sustainability measures. Getting started is also easy &#8211; <strong>Gavin Sowden, Sustainability Manager at Woburn GC<\/strong> near London, is sure of that. The top facility, one of the leading golf clubs in the UK with an excellent international reputation, has made a name for itself in recent years as a driver of sustainable management in many areas. The concept is convincing due to its complexity, which also includes many small projects that cost little or nothing and only require one thing: Commitment to the cause.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Bird boxes<\/strong> Over the winter, Greenkeepers with a keen interest in birds and wildlife have built numerous boxes from recycled pallets and terrace wood.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cooperation with local animal welfare groups<\/strong>: Woburn invited the Beds, Cambs &amp; Norhants Wildlife Trust to carry out a fauna &amp; flora survey on site. In the process, 38 plants were discovered and, interestingly, 20 different spider species were also recorded.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bug hotels:<\/strong> One of our talented Course Attendants collected materials from around the courses to build three bug hotels. Decking boards, waste cardboard, tree guards and pinecones were all used to construct the hotels.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Waste reduction<\/strong> Consistent separation Course Attendant, who collects the waste in the garbage cans on the site and separates it into plastic, paper, cans and general waste.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recycling<\/strong> In 2023, Woburn generated 49 tons of waste, 41 % of which was recycled. Twenty percent of food waste was processed into biofertilizer, and 39 % was used to generate green electricity. None of the waste ends up in landfills anymore.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Suppliers<\/strong> Woburn GC is asking its suppliers to reduce their packaging with all greenkeeper uniform supplied without packaging. Excess packaging impacts the amount of waste and could end up in landfill.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Coffee grounds<\/strong> are collected and processed into collected and sent to be processed into Coffee Logs. Each log contains the grounds from around 20 cups of coffee. They burn 20% hotter than kiln-dried wood and generate less emissions than if the grounds were sent to anaerobic digestion.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Saving energy<\/strong> All employees at the golf course have been asked to switch off the lights when they leave their rooms. Timers were installed on the hot water tanks and heaters in the staff areas. Compared to previous months, Woburn was able to save up to 15 %.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Water saving<\/strong> Waterless urinals were installed in greenkeeper welfare areas. The previous urinals were using 15 litres of water every hour whilst flushing. Woburn sees a 30% saving on water within the maintenance facility<\/li>\n<li><strong>Protecting the local environment<\/strong> Regular waste collections on the local streets around the club make an immediate and visible difference to the environment in which we live, work and play.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lxeh9psj-bcdbc1afe16b673f101f5dd12f67cb34\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lxeh9psj-bcdbc1afe16b673f101f5dd12f67cb34 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lxeh9psj-bcdbc1afe16b673f101f5dd12f67cb34 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lxeh9psj-bcdbc1afe16b673f101f5dd12f67cb34 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-3  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  av-has-copyright av-copyright-always'  ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-26748 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-26748 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/golfsustainable.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Survey-1379x430.jpg\" alt='' title='Survey'  height=\"430\" width=\"1379\"  \/><\/div><small class=\"avia-copyright\">Local environment groups did a survey on fauna &amp; flora (all images Woburn GC)<\/small><\/div><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lxehiji9-14084be2ba7e375eb391379097914ec7 '  ><div class='avia_textblock' ><p>The costs are low, but it is still sometimes difficult to get started. &#8220;One of the biggest problems in implementing measures is the lack of knowledge and awareness that we need to address the issue,&#8221; summarizes <strong>Eddie Bullock<\/strong>, renowned consultant to golf clubs worldwide. &#8220;Basically, you need one person in the club to take responsibility and act as a coordinator and contact person. From then on, there are usually enough volunteers who are happy to take part. &#8220;In the end, the whole thing is primarily a question of communication.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<div  class='av-social-sharing-box av-7hra3-318db28a591c8f238cb2db5b9b4a7082 av-social-sharing-box-default  avia-builder-el-5  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last  av-social-sharing-box-fullwidth'><div class=\"av-share-box\"><h5 class='av-share-link-description av-no-toc '>Share this entry<\/h5><ul class=\"av-share-box-list noLightbox\"><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-facebook avia_social_iconfont' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on Facebook\" href='https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/golfsustainable.com\/en\/best-sustainability-tips-from-woburn-gc\/&#038;t=Small%20effort%20%E2%80%93%20big%20effect%3A%20the%20best%20tips%20from%20Woburn%20GC' data-av_icon='\ue8f3' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on Facebook'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on Facebook<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-twitter avia_social_iconfont' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on X\" href='https:\/\/twitter.com\/share?text=Small%20effort%20%E2%80%93%20big%20effect%3A%20the%20best%20tips%20from%20Woburn%20GC&#038;url=https:\/\/golfsustainable.com\/en\/?p=26737' data-av_icon='\ue932' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on X'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on X<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-whatsapp avia_social_iconfont' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on WhatsApp\" href='https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=https:\/\/golfsustainable.com\/en\/best-sustainability-tips-from-woburn-gc\/' data-av_icon='\uf232' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on WhatsApp'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on WhatsApp<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-pinterest avia_social_iconfont' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on Pinterest\" href='https:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgolfsustainable.com%2Fen%2Fbest-sustainability-tips-from-woburn-gc%2F&#038;description=Small%20effort%20%E2%80%93%20big%20effect%3A%20the%20best%20tips%20from%20Woburn%20GC&#038;media=https%3A%2F%2Fgolfsustainable.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2024%2F06%2FWoburn-GC-1-705x397.jpg' data-av_icon='\ue8f8' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on Pinterest'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on Pinterest<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-linkedin avia_social_iconfont' ><a target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Share on LinkedIn\" href='https:\/\/linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&#038;title=Small%20effort%20%E2%80%93%20big%20effect%3A%20the%20best%20tips%20from%20Woburn%20GC&#038;url=https:\/\/golfsustainable.com\/en\/best-sustainability-tips-from-woburn-gc\/' data-av_icon='\ue8fc' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share on LinkedIn'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share on LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/li><li class='av-share-link av-social-link-mail avia_social_iconfont' ><a  aria-label=\"Share by Mail\" href='mailto:?subject=Small%20effort%20%E2%80%93%20big%20effect%3A%20the%20best%20tips%20from%20Woburn%20GC&#038;body=https:\/\/golfsustainable.com\/en\/best-sustainability-tips-from-woburn-gc\/' data-av_icon='\ue805' data-av_iconfont='entypo-fontello'  title='' data-avia-related-tooltip='Share by Mail'><span class='avia_hidden_link_text'>Share by Mail<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26758,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"image","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[770,813,2,2619],"tags":[1115,812,1008,1167,2860],"class_list":["post-26737","post","type-post","status-publish","format-image","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-best-practices","category-greenkeeping-en","category-unkategorisiert","category-special-top-100-places","tag-golf-and-biodiversity","tag-golf-and-sustainability","tag-golf-course","tag-sustainability-in-golf","tag-woburn-gc-en","post_format-post-format-image"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.4 (Yoast SEO v27.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Small effort - big effect: the best tips from Woburn GC - Golf Sustainable<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Starting a sustainability program does not have to be expensive.
