Tesco – Bags of Help
On 28th August 2017, after a 10-week trial in Aberdeen, Dundee and Norwich, Tesco stopped selling single use carrier bags. They have replaced them with a new 10p ‘Bag for Life’. Community groups, will still benefit from the funding generated by sales of the new bag through the Bags of Help grant funding stream managed by Groundwork UK and Greenspace Scotland.
Grants of up to £4,000 are available to Charities and community groups applying for support for local projects that improve the environment.
