Gift vouchers for kids who help their parents cut down on plastic bags

Jan 28 2008 By Judith Phillips

CHILDREN and their families are being encouraged to cut down on plastic bag use by a gift voucher scheme at Asda in Llandudno.

The Go Green scheme gives vouchers to customers who choose to reuse their old carriers or not use a plastic bag at all.

Last year a number of local schools signed up for the 10-week scheme and this year many more have joined. Schools collecting the vouchers can redeem them against educational eco-equipment ranging from grow beds to pocket microscopes, solar panels, and remote camera bird tables.

More information can be obtained by contacting Derek Cross at the store or logging on to www.asda- gogreenforschools.co.uk
