It's time to make small steps this July to go plastic free!
Here are a few helpful suggestions to help you ditch plastic.
1. Don't forget your reusable bag when you visit the Exchange.
Grab your funkiest tote bag for your weekly visit to the Exchange.
2. Bring your own reusable water bottle/ coffee cup.
It's been pretty toasty out there lately! Bring your reusable water bottle and fill it up from various fountains around campus.
3. Moving out? Drop off any unwanted utensils at the Exchange.
Don't bin your unwanted items if you're moving out, donate them to the Exchange instead to give them a new home.
4. Find plastic free sanitary products at the Exchange.
Did you know that there is a wide variety of plastic free sanitary products available from the Exchange? These are completely free and don't count toward your 5 items!
5. Make use of your local clothes swaps and charity shops.
There are loads of clothes swaps in and around Southampton that you can attend, as well as fabulous charity shops! Whether you're looking to buy or donate, these are a great way of giving clothes a new lease of life.
