South Tyne Sustainability and Sustainable Brampton have embarked on a campaign and are looking for recruits at this end of Hadrian’s Wall.
‘Plastic free along the Wall’ is a project with the national refill campaign Find Water on the Go to get cafes and other places to sign up to refill water bottles and so reduce single use plastic.
Volunteers from Transition Tynedale will (hopefully) be tackling the Hexham area. The campaign now needs one or more volunteers to sign up businesses to the east of Hexham. There will probably be a supply of stickers and it’ll be a case of talking to shop/cafe/pub proprietors, handing out info and signing people up with a mobile phone app over the summer months. The plan is to generate publicity early in the summer and have the project done by the end of September.
