Plastic-Free July

It's Plastic-Free July! Why not take up the challenge? Here are some helpful and easy tips to implement, to help you minimise your plastic waste.

It’s Plastic-Free July! Why not take up the challenge? It’s a great opportunity to implement small changes which make a big difference over time. Imagine the impact if every person made a few simple changes to their day-to-day habits. 

Here are a few positive changes one could easily get on board with:

- Swap out Shampoo Bottles for Solid zero waste Shampoo Bars - great for the environment AND your hair.

- Choose Body creams and personal care products packaged in Glass and not Plastic

- BYO bag when doing grocery shopping.

- BYO reusable coffee cup and ditch disposable take-away cups (some cafes even offer a discount if you bring your own cup)

- Stop buying plastic water bottles and refill your own glass/steel bottle with water from a filter

- Don’t buy fruit and veggies wrapped in plastic. Instead select produce from the loose section at your grocer and pack directly into your bag.

- Refuse the straw! 

- Buy refills rather than new product each time. Alternatively, there are some incredible home-made cleaning detergent recipes available online.

- recycle wherever possible.
