As part of our commitment to ensuring Hounslow is as clean and green as possible, Hounslow Council has partnered with City to Sea to become a ‘Refill Destination’.
Encouraging refill behaviour will empower residents and businesses to move away from single-use plastics, decreasing our plastic pollution footprint and helping the borough become more sustainable.
Hounslow Council declared a climate emergency in 2019 and has set a target to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2030. The Refill campaign aims to encourage more circular and sustainable thinking across Hounslow.
Plastic waste has a negative impact on the environment and our health, with it frequently ending up in our streets, rivers, and subsequently in our oceans. Reusing items when eating and drinking on the go, or when shopping, reduces our reliance on polluting single-use plastics.
Residents
If you’re a Hounslow resident passionate about fighting against plastic pollution, download the Refill app to see where your local Refill stations are.
Hounslow residents can help make a difference by encouraging businesses to sign up as Refill Stations. The Council can provide volunteers with resources to run your own action day. To request resources, please contact: environmental.champion@hounslow.gov.uk.
Businesses
If you’re a business already offering refills, you can sign up to become an official Refill Station.
If you’re a business who doesn’t yet offer refills, join the scheme and read more.
