Refill Manchester
Zero carbon team
Our Zero Carbon Team at Manchester City Council are leading on a project to increase the number of refill points within our neighbourhoods. Currently we are:
- Reviewing where we can make our own buildings accessible for water refills.
- Working with businesses in local areas to increase Refill sign-ups.
- Scoping where other projects could support the increase in refill and reuse to drive down the number of disposables used.
If you’re looking to start a Refill Scheme, we’ve got a guide to help you get started.
Climate Change Action Plan
As part of our wider Climate Change Action plan, Manchester City Council pledged to eradicate the use of avoidable single use plastics across the council estate by the end of 2024. In addition, we are committed to influencing across the city on this. Promoting Refill in Manchester is one just way that we are working towards this goal.
Getting involved is easy!
To find out how you can get involved visit Neighbourhood Climate Action | Zero Carbon Manchester | Manchester City Council or reach out to your local Neighbourhood Climate Change Officer:
- South Neighbourhood Team – [email protected]
- North Neighbourhood Team – [email protected]
- Central Neighbourhood Team – [email protected]
We would love to hear from businesses and community groups who can offer refill or can help to promote Refill to their communities.
