Plastic Free Streatham – Give a Glass Campaign

By

Join us in supporting Plastic Free Streatham latest campaign and make a difference today!

 

Join us in saying NO to single use cups and GIVE A GLASS or a DISCOUNT to all customers bringing their own reusable cup!

 

Plastic pollution is a major environmental issue, harming us, our ecosystems and wildlife. Before Covid many businesses  on the High Road had been awarded a plastic free certificate, but since Covid we have witnessed a huge increase of disposable plastic single use cups, especially during the summer, with frappes, smoothies, milkshakes, etc… We need your support in reducing waste and promoting sustainability in our community.

So let’s do what we can to reduce our plastic waste footprint.

 

The Plastic Free Streatham team is asking you to provide glasses to customers who choose to drink their summer beverages in your shop rather than using disposable cups. This simple change can make a big difference in reducing  the amount of waste generated by your business.

Additionally, we encourage you to offer a discount to customers who bring their own reusable cups and display it visibly, to incentivise customers to make more sustainable choices.

 

We understand that making these changes may require some adjustments to your business practices, but we hope that you will consider our request and take action to promote sustainability in our community.

 

 

 

Any questions or want to get involved, please message us on FB or twitter.

Streatham Food Festival 2023

By

The InStreatham Food Festival is coming back with a bang this Summer! Returning to our original format of 4 days, the event will include the Streatham Food Tour and the Streatham Food Fair, back for one day on Streatham Green.

Taking place from 29th June to 2nd July 2023, we will showcase the amazing global food selection on offer in Streatham.  This year’s event will have a renewed focus on restaurants and cafes offering small, bite sized, taster dishes, to encourage participants to taste their way around Streatham, trying as many different eateries as possible.  Each dish will be priced at between £5 and £10, making the event affordable for all.

We’re excited to announce that we will be bringing the Streatham Food Fair back to Streatham Green this year too, alongside Streatham Village Market on the same day.  The event will feature food stalls, music and entertainment – bringing a buzz to Streatham Green and creating a focal point for the festival.

Spreading the word

The event will be promoted with an outdoor ad campaign and through a programme created and distributed with Heart Streatham Magazine, on the social media channels for the Streatham Food Festival and InStreatham.  A PR push will help ensure as many people hear about it as possible, with posters and bunting created and distributed to all participating outlets too, to visually highlight the businesses taking part.   

How do I get involved?

If you’d like your business to get involved, either in the Food Tour or with a stall at the event on Streatham Green, simply complete the application form and return it to events@instreatham.com by 15th May at midday.
