WARSAN VILLAGE
Winter 2025
FROM THE COMMUNITY DESK As we welcome the start of a brand-new year, I’m delighted to take this opportunity to reflect on the many positive developments that took place across Warsan Village over the past year. The last few months were filled with meaningful upgrades, festive celebrations and initiatives that brought our residents closer together. From enhanced amenities, Total Facilities Management (TFM) and beautification works to engaging events that added warmth to the season, every improvement was made with the goal of creating a more comfortable, connected and enjoyable living environment for everyone. It’s been truly rewarding to see residents come together to enjoy these new spaces and experiences and to witness the shared sense of pride in our growing community. Your feedback and involvement play a vital role in shaping the spaces we share and I look forward to another year of collaboration, progress and community spirit. Here’s to a wonderful year ahead filled with new milestones and meaningful connections.

ECO WINS Shore to Soil In a major sustainability milestone, we have launched an algaeto-compost initiative in partnership with ReFarm, a pioneer in regenerative agriculture. The programme transforms naturally collected algae (seasonal algae from the beach waters of Palm Jumeirah) mixed with food waste into nutrient-rich organic fertiliser through an eco-friendly, larvae-based decomposition process. The first successful batch has been produced and will be used in landscaping projects across Palm Jumeirah and other communities. This initiative exemplifies circular economy in action, turning natural surplus into resources that enrich the environment and strengthen community sustainability.
The Great Green Declutter
There’s no better time to reset your space and your impact. 2026 is your year to turn your annual home declutter into a meaningful sustainability ritual; the whole family can join in and here’s how.
Sort and donate
Recycle Right
The UAE discards over 210,000 tonnes of clothing yearly. Create three piles-Keep, Recycle, Donate. Reusing just 1 kg of clothing saves 25 kg of CO₂ and thousands of litres of water.
Almost 90% of textiles still end up in landfills. Drop off clothes, books and gadgets at local recycling points and avoid mixing materials to keep recycling effective.
Ditch the Disposables The UAE will start phasing out single-use plastics (SUPs) as part of a major move towards cleaner communities and reduced landfill waste. Here’s what you can switch to within your reach.
CUPS AND LIDS
CUTLERY
FOOD CONTAINERS
PLATES
Most takeaway cups can’t be recycled due to plastic lining. Switching to stainless-steel cups keeps hundreds of disposables out of landfills every year.
Plastic cutlery can take up to 200 years to decompose. A reusable set used even 20 times offsets its footprint.
With over 6 billion food-packaging units used in 2024 and only 5% to 7% recycled, stainless-steel or glass containers are a durable, microplastic-free alternative.
Food-service plastics make up nearly 40% of global plastic waste. For parties or private events at home, choose biodegradable bagasse plates; they break down far faster than plastic.
Seamless Living at Your Fingertips Enjoy a hassle-free community experience with your community app. From managing your move in/out process, requesting minor modifications, or applying for access cards to even booking your amenities. All your needs are just a tap away.

RIPPLE EFFECT In every community, there are individuals whose kindness leaves a lasting mark. Meet Ginny Gidwani and family from MBR City District One for whom giving back isn’t about grand gestures. It’s about thoughtful, everyday moments that bring joy to others. Appreciative of blue-collar workers keeping the neighbourhood safe and beautiful, the Gidwanis show their gratitude in simple ways: a cool drink on a hot afternoon, a snack shared during a busy shift or an ice cream offered over the weekend.
Each act may be small, but the smiles they spark are unforgettable. For the family, it’s not material things but genuine connections that enrich life and strengthen a community. Their story is a reminder that sometimes, the smallest acts of kindness bring us closer together.

REQUEST WAIVER
(asking for the fine to be waived)

(if you believe the violation is incorrect)
Always remember: If no action is taken within three days, the violation will be escalated and a fine will be automatically applied.
