Absolutely thrilled to share that we have been honoured with an award for our contributions to waste reduction! 💚✨

This recognition is a testament to the power of collective action and the small changes we can all make to create a more sustainable future.

I am very grateful to everyone who has supported this journey by borrowing my party kit or telling a friend (or two!). Together, we can make a real difference!

This year, members of the Party Kit Network () contributed to avoiding over 331,000 single-use items. That’s now more than 1 million items since the network started!

Please support us to continue to make an impact.

Happy to be a part of this community, and contributed to these figures. We may only be a small little part of this world, but every little bit of disposable tableware avoided counts!

“A party kit is a simple concept - a box of reusable tableware hosted by someone in the community to avoid unnecessary waste from single-use items.

Each year, members of the Party Kit Network count up the number of single-use items saved by choosing reuse and borrowing a party kit. This year, 193 members participated, collectively avoiding a staggering 331,783 items! 🤩

That's the amount of single-use plates, cups, bowls, and cutlery that were not purchased and so didn’t end up in a landfill, thanks to the dedication of our members.”

We aren’t just for parties! Today’s box is going off to a faith-based community event. They only need cups, bowls and jugs. We can adapt box hires to suit your needs - always ask us, and we will do our best to accommodate requests 😊

We have updated our prices in order to make reusable, eco-friendly opportunities available to everyone. When you hire a party box from us, you are choosing to not send single-use items to landfill, and choosing to support a local, family run business. Thank you! 😊. Please DM us for bookings.

On 1 October, in efforts to reduce plastic pollution, more single-use plastic items have been banned in England.

The ban includes:
🚫 Single-use plastic plates, bowls and trays
🚫 Single-use plastic cutlery including knives, forks, spoons, sporks and chopsticks
🚫 Plastic balloon sticks
🚫 Polystyrene cups and containers

Interestingly the ban in England also includes single-use items made from bioplastics. These are plastics made from an organic source like corn starch and sugar cane rather than oil.

Switching to reusables, wherever possible, is the best way to reduce both our waste and our carbon footprint. This is why our party kits offer such a practical alternative to single-use plastic tableware. 🥳

The ban includes:

🚫 Single-use plastic cutlery including knives, forks, spoons, sporks and chopsticks
🚫 Plastic balloon sticks

This is similar to bans already in place in Scotland, the EU and many other countries and states around the world.

Interestingly the ban in England also includes single-use items made from bioplastics. These are plastics made from an organic source like corn starch and sugar cane rather than oil.

One of the alternatives is to switch to single-use items made from a natural material like wood, paper, cardboard, bamboo and even palm leaves. These will breakdown after use much more quickly than plastics, and don't leave behind any nasty toxins.

However switching to reusables, wherever possible, is the best way to reduce both our waste and our carbon footprint. This is why our party kits offer such a practical alternative to single-use plastic tableware. 🥳

If you're not based in England, has your country / state already banned these items?
What do you think the impact has been?
