Re-fill Me – Fill up your water bottle free of charge
NewsIn the UK, 7.7 billion plastic bottles of water are purchased each year – that’s over 20 million a day. Although we do great work across our centres in recycling, the best approach is for us to reduce this waste to begin with. On average, only half of the water bottles purchased in the UK get recycled. The rest are burned, sent to landfill or end up in our ecosystems. This contributes to the eight million tonnes of plastic which enter our oceans each year.
It is for this reason we are keen to allow our customers to refill their water bottles at the following locations at St Anns Shopping Centre:
- Ernest Jones
- Boots
- Herbs & Acupuncture
- Burger King
- KFC
- Spud u like
- Pizza Hut
- Harry’s Cafe
- Café Nero provide water for customers in jugs with ice
- Virgin Media (throughout August and September only.
