With best wishes for Christmas, The next meeting of SCRAP Salisbury City Residents’ Action on Packaging is: St. Francis Church Hall, The Neve Room Help to make Salisbury the first Plastic Bag Free City! A letter from SCRAP: Salisbury City Residents against Packaging:
SCRAP is a new organisation affiliated to South Wiltshire Agenda 21 dedicated to ridding Salisbury of unwanted plastic bags and packaging. This is being done in a number of other towns and cities across the country. A meeting has been arranged to discuss the strategy and aims for the group: St Francis’ Church Hall SCRAP (Salisbury City Residents Action on Packaging) is a group of City residents who wish to get rid of unsustainable packaging in Salisbury. Its first objective is to eliminate the use of single-use plastic bags in the City, and an initial action is to supply each household in the City with a shopping bag made from sustainable materials. Although SCRAP has been established with the active involvement of two ward Councillors, it is a non-political group, and it already has support from all local political parties, Local Agenda 21 and the Wiltshire Wildlife Trust. We wish to broaden our support to include local businesses and other interested parties. |
