Bag deliveries...
One of the main aims of Penistone Carry-A-Bag was to provide households in the Penistone Area with information about reducing plastic bags use and a fabric bag to use instead.
The Co-op kindly donated 6000 fairtrade fabric bags and we have now had our bag delivery day. Thanks a million to everyone who turned out in the rain to deliver bags, packed them with leaflets, or took bags to deliver another day. An amazing one hundred people helped out and made short work of it all - every bag was packed and given to a deliverer on bag delivery day.
You should now have had your bag if you live in the Penistone area. Apologies if yours was very late - the bin men did all the outlying areas and farms and due to the bad weather have had trouble finding days when they could leave them tucked in your bin handles. If you still have not had a bag, please contact us.
