If you’ve already bought your Jubilee bunting then please don’t bin it at the end of celebrations.
- Donate to a community organisation that can re use another time
- Take it to a charity shop
- Leave at Lesley’s nutshell, Ventnor and we will collect for reuse
Alternative to single use plastic
If you haven’t yet bought your Jubilee bunting, then think about a last minute alternative to single use plastic or paper etc:
- Use pieces of fabric from clothes/sheets that can’t be worn again, you could just hand tack or safety pin so the pieces can be used again in a different combination.
- Use scraps of paper or packaging, ask friends and family for red white and blues or get creative and use all colours
- If you’ve anything red white and blue e. g plastic spades, socks, toys anything light enough and something that won’t get too wet if it rains, you can tie this from your string for a truly individual bunting!

Reusing and using less means we use less energy, less of the World’s resources and create less waste to help our Oceans.
