 An innovative campaign by a group of Crouch End traders to encourage shoppers to go green was launched last Thursday with the support of Lynne Featherstone MP.
'The Crouch End Project' will help local residents to do their bit for the environment with the new Crouch End Bag. Budgen's have led the charge on reducing the use of free plastic bags and are hoping to be plastic bag free by the spring.
The launch comes hot on the heels of Ms. Featherstone's action, calling on all local supermarkets to seriously reduce excess packaging and plastic bags.
Commenting Lynne Featherstone, Lib Dem MP for Hornsey & Wood Green, says:
"With the new Crouch End Bag, local shoppers can kill two birds with one stone - support local retailers and do their bit for the environment."
