Are you a Farnham business and want get involved?
If you are local to the area, we would love you to become a key part of the Plastic Free communities movement. Work with us to reduce single-use plastic in Farnham and tackle the system behind it by becoming a Champion!
We believe that by asking local businesses to join us, you will lead the way for your consumers to follow and help stem the flow of single-use plastic directly. Thanks to your efforts, if you become a Champion for Farnham you will be at the forefront of reducing plastic pollution at its source and enabling your whole community to choose to go plastic free!
Become a Standard, Silver or Gold level Champion
All your business needs to do in order to become a Plastic Free Champion, is to make 3 swaps from single-use plastic items to more sustainable alternatives. Once you have done this, you then need to state what your company could tackle in the future to make even further improvements.
When we have received the information on which items you are eliminating from your business and what your actions are for the future, you will receive a certificate and award from us to display to your community and customers - and show that you’re taking action!
However, if you believe that your business is already proactive on tackling single-use plastic, then how about becoming a Silver or Gold level Champion? To find out more about these levels, please download our toolkit or contact us for information.
Examples of the top offenders that businesses swap out include:
- Plastic bottles
- Takeaway coffee cups
- Plastic carrier bags
- Plastic takeaway packaging
- Plastic drinking cups
- Bathroom plastic
- Balloons and plastic decorations
- Plastic packaging
