How can we be more circular in our everyday lives?

Recycling is good... but we can do better!

There are lots of easy changes that we can make in our everyday lives to be more circular.

Have a Buy Less Mindset & Swap the Way You Shop

Refuse
  • Do we really need all of the items that we buy?
  • Say no to single use packaging.
Reduce
  • Go for second hand and refurbished before purchasing brand new.
  • Reduce the impact of tech by keeping it for longer (phones & laptops).

Use It Again, Again...and Again

Reuse
  • Keep things in use for as long as possible.
  • Be good at using your water bottle, coffee cup and lunch box.
Repair & Refurbish
  • Many household appliances can be repaired, they often don’t need to be replaced.
  • Consider purchasing refurbished products. They often still have a warranty and can save you a fortune!
Repurpose
  • Get creative and give something a second life.
  • Use coffee grounds in the garden.
