Closed Ban plastic charity bags being delivered to every household

Closed on

Ban charities from using plastic bags to collect unwanted clothing and unwanted household items. The majority of households don’t use these bags for this purpose and it is just contributing to the mountain of plastic bag waste.

These plastic charity bags are delivered without our permission and it is a national disgrace that we allow this to happen. Free plastic supermarket bags were banned in order to help save the environment and wildlife and so should plastic charity bags.
