Choose to Reuse

Since it was formed in 2018, Plastic Free Streatham has been at the forefront of the battle to reduce the consumption of disposable plastic in Streatham and increase awareness about its environmental impact. Their latest initiative, the “Choose to Reuse” campaign, marks another step towards a greener future; the campaign aims to decrease the usage of single-use coffee cups and the immense amount of waste generated by our coffee consumption habit.

They have conducted multiple visits to all independent coffee shops since autumn, urging owners and managers to provide a discount to customers who bring their own reusable cups and as a result, 16 coffee shops in Streatham now offer this special discount. 

By choosing reusable options and supporting cafes that prioritise sustainability, you can make a tangible difference. Simply bring your own reusable cup to any of these 16 coffee shops and you’ll automatically receive a special discount on your purchase.

Disposable cups may seem convenient, but their impact on the environment is far-reaching. The InStreatham reusable cup aims to address this by promoting a greener alternative that you can call your own. To get your hands on your own InStreatham cup, pop into Café Barcelona, Creative Soul and The Indigo Tree.

Please join us in supporting the campaign and CHOOSE TO REUSE! By rejecting single-use cups, we take a crucial step towards reducing unnecessary waste and lessening our carbon footprint.
