Company activities and impact

Plastic-Free Hackney is a local organisation that aims to teach the community about the wide ranging issues plastic pollution causes with the aim to to get people to reduce their own use of single-use plastics. We do this in a number of ways such as awareness events, talks, film screenings and workshops. Due to the high levels of poverty and deprivation in the borough of Hackney we provide free events and hook participants by teaching them that actually going plastic-free can be cheaper; workshops such as make your own low cost toiletries and cleaning products are a huge success and empower residents to make their own products that are cheaper, have less toxic ingredients and are plastic free. Our feedback forms show that participants leave the workshops feeling empowered and confident to explore what other products they can switch to and look at more sustainable alternatives. We also run pollution picks every month which are open to the whole community; we regularly have a turnout of 40+ people removing on average 100kg of pollution from the environment. These events leave participants with a great sense of wellbeing and again makes them think about the waste that is created and what they can do to reduce this. It also allows us to partner with other groups in our community to amplify our message of creating a cleaner and greener planet.

Consultation with stakeholders

The companies stakeholders are the volunteers and participants that come to our events. At the end of each event we ask participants to fill in a feedback form which allows us to see if we are hitting our targets or tailor future events differently as per the feedback. We are always open to feedback and via social media and our website communicate regularly with stakeholders which allows us to tailor events and host ad hoc based on requests from the community. We also have made a number of connections with other local organisations who we are able to partner with and collaborate with as well as discuss ways in which we can better serve the community through shared resources and ensure that our goals are met.
