Time to Refill!
Wandsworth Town BID has now set-up a local Refill scheme in the town centre to help reduce the amount of single-use plastic that can litter Wandsworth Town’s streets, parks and river. Local bars, cafés, restaurants and other friendly venues are joining the scheme to help keep everyone in the area happy and hydrated.
Local businesses can now register here to be a part of the Wandsworth Town Refill scheme and be a part of a more sustainable, cleaner Wandsworth Town.
There are currently over 30,000 Refill Taps in the UK, and we are proud to be adding to that number and do our part to create a more environmentally friendly place for the residents, visitors and workers in Wandsworth Town.
What is Refill?
Refill works by connecting people with locations where they can eat, drink and shop with less waste, reducing the amount of single-use plastic produced in the local area. Anyone can download the free app to find local refill stations near them.
Participating businesses simply sign up to the app and put a sticker in their window, alerting passers-by that they’re welcome to come on in and get a refill of tap water in their reusable bottles.
What Do I Have to Do?
If you’re a business, it’s easy. If you’re a customer, it’s even easier!
As a Refill Station, all you have to do is provide free tap-water to customers who ask. By topping up their reusable water bottles, you’ve already started making Wandsworth Town a more sustainable place for everyone. Take a look at more information here.
If you’re a customer, just look out for the Refill logo in Wandsworth Town businesses or take a look on the app to see where you can refill your water bottles!
How Can I Sign Up?
Signing up is easy. Simply fill in the form here and you will be registered on the Refill app and website as a Refill Tap. Plus you will be sent stickers so people can see that you are working to make a difference and they can fill-up their water bottles with tap water with you. You can see which Wandsworth Town businesses are part of Refill on our Food and Services page.
