aim
In May 2007, Modbury, Devon became the first town in Britain to be plastic bag free. A huge achievement, driven by individual and community spirit with globally minded action.
In an attempt to reduce household waste, plasticbagfreebrighton.co.uk is encouraging all Brighton & Hove shoppers to use and re-use environmentally friendly shopping bags and encourage all shops to supply them.
This is intended to be a community campaign to bring together those of us who want to make Brighton plastic bag free.
This site gives details of suppliers of plastic bag alternatives, as information becomes available (wholesale and retail) and facts and figures about the detrimental effects plastic bags are having on the environment.
In the downloads section you'll find regularly updated items to print off, email or display to help Brighton & Hove become plastic bag free.
Let's follow Modbury's example by demonstrating individual and community responsibility toward our local environment
