Ban the delivery of plastic charity collection bags to households in the UK

Closed 477 signatures

What the petition asks

Charities regularly use plastic bags in hopes of collecting items from households. These bags are rarely collected if empty and are therefore destined for landfill. People do not give money to causes knowing that their hard earned cash will be spent on creating plastic bags. Time to think green!
