TIP OF THE DAY

Drink wine from clear glass bottles (we have a green glass mountain in the UK). Drink beer in glasses instead of bottles and reduce the manufacture of bottles. Drink pints instead of halves as there is less washing up!

Fun, Funky, Functional 'Onya' Bags - only £3.50!

Changeworks is challenging shoppers in Edinburgh and the Lothians to ditch the plastic bag habit.

To help, reusable ‘Onya’ bags are available at cost price for just £3.50 plus postage and packaging of 50p per bag (usual price for a bag is about £6.50).


Onya bags have been very popular with Changeworks staff as they are very small when stored in their own bag, but also hold a good amount of shopping.

The bags are customised with the Changeworks logo and the Changeworks web address on the pocket on the front.

To receive your own 'Onya' bag, please send a cheque made payable to 'Changeworks' for £3.50 plus 50p per bag for postage and packaging to:

Too Good To Waste
Changeworks
36 Newhaven Road
Edinburgh
EH6 5PY

There are three colours to choose

from: red (as shown); olive green and charcoal (as shown).
