WIN!!! 🎉 We are so pleased to see Penzance Council start to install dual recycling bins on their sites in town. This is something we’ve been asking for and working on with them for a while now and it’s fantastic to see progress 👏👏👏

Soon we will also see dual bins on @CornwallCouncil land the prom and other streets in town thanks to work with and from @penzancebid, the Town Deal Accelerator Fund and Cllr Jim McKenna.

Collaboration = Positive Progress

Massive shout out to Plastic Free Champions @thehoneypotpz and their new reuse Juice Bottles 👏👏👏 A great idea for smoothies too for businesses needing inspiration on how to get away from single use cups ✨

♻️ JUICE BOTTLES! 🌎 Our homemade freshly pressed juices are now served in glass bottles - bring them back and get 50p! We’ll sterilise and use them again and again! This is the next step in our battle against waste and we’re hoping you’ll support us in this venture and help us to help the planet 💪 🌎 ♻️

🎉 We've made it! So good to see local businesses back open and life start to return to the town ☺️ Coming out of Lockdown is fantastic news .. but also poses plastic pollution issues as more of us get out and about to shop, meet friends and hit the coast.

Check out our simple tips to try and avoid post lockdown pollution on our streets and beaches on link in bio ☝️

There’s a lovely swim community here in #Penzance and being so immersed in the ocean and connected to it each day is incredibly special 💙 It also is heartbreaking seeing face to face (literally sometimes!) the effect single use plastic has on this beautiful water world 😥

Thank you to everyone who scoops up what they can and collects from the coastline 🙏

Here’s @wildedgeswimmingcornwall with what she could carry.

We can so easily avoid this. How?
✅ Refuse single use plastic
✅Use refill bottles and cups
✅ Take rubbish home
✅ Join our actions with @surfersagainstsewage to put pressure on government and industry
