Every year, the UK produces millions of tonnes of avoidable single-use plastic waste. Making full use of our recycling bins is great, but there is still a lot that can’t be recycled and will end up in landfill or in the sea, with a devastating impact on our environment and wildlife.
We get it; your small festive gettogether has turned a bit bigger than initially thought and grabbing some plastic cups, plates and cutlery is a quick and easy way to ensure you have enough for everyone. But, before you buy, stop and think about your alternative, eco-friendly options.
