01 Choose the soap without the sticker and make note of the code for the counter

Package free soap from realfoods.co.uk

02 Say no to the straw at the same time you order your beverage

Staff in bars and restaurants are generally very

busy and are on autopilot when serving customers

so I've found its always best to mention I don't want

the straw when I am ordering my drink.

03 Take a flask/reusable cup where ever you go

It can be hard to introduce a new habit into your

daily pattern. Try remembering to place it in your

bag along with your keys before you leave the

house, or maybe after breakfast. Also if your sitting

in the cafe its best to mention that you would like

an actual cup. I've noticed some chain businesses

just give you disposable automatically even if you

are sitting in!

04 Upcycle what you can!

Many things we throw into the recycling could

actually be upcycled into something useful in

the house. Such as Jars, Milk Cartons and

cardboard . . There are many ways to create

useful household items. . If you are struggling

for idea's just google! The internet is fully

loaded with upcycling bloggers from around

the world. 

Its also a really fun process for children to get

involved with as its creative and they are

learning at the same time! 

 

 

 

 

05 Look for alternative options

Toilet roll is a difficult one to avoid plastic if you

don't want to spend a fortune. 

Sometimes if you are lucky you can find rolls

wrapped in paper but they can usually be expensive

or quite difficult to find. In this case I feel all you

can do is try to find the best alternative solution

which I feel is to buy compostable wrapped toilet roll

or recycled toilet paper.
