Join Plastic Free Cheltenham
For us, community action means getting together and highlighting the impact of plastics on our own town and worldwide. Plastic Free Cheltenham organises community cleaning events on streets and in parks. We meet every month to plan ahead and hear from local allies.
We need businesses to lead the way in the community.
Find out about how your business can benefit from being a Plastic Free Champion. Even if ‘plastic free’ seems an impossible feat, there will be changes you can make to reduce your impact.
We can pop in for a chat and help you find ways to reduce single-use plastics in the workplace.
