Our brand new membership pack is not ready for existing and new members and contains 10 great hints and tips for reducing single-use plastic, a register of Plastic-Free Champion businesses to shop at in Dunfermline and discounts from some of those businesses.

Dunfermline receives this award in recognition of the commitment of local businesses, schools, community groups, organisations and people to reduce their unnecessary single-use plastic, and Dunfermline becomes the sixth and largest (by population) community in Scotland to do so.

We thank all these people who have helped us on this journey and those who work so hard every day to eliminate whatever single-use plastic they can – this award is for you!!!

We are delighted to announce that there are three new 'Plastic-Free Champion' businesses.

These are Khushi's Indian Restaurant and Takeaway, The Ricketty Desk and the Wee Folk Scotland. These businesses have taken great strides to reduce the amount of single-use plastic they use.
