Plastic Free Seaford – Plastic Free Seaford. Empowering the Seaford community to tackle the single-use plastics epidemic.

How can Seaford create a single-use plastic free town, championing reusables instead of disposables?

Surfers Against Sewage first created the ‘Wasteland’ campaign to create plastic free coastlines, 'Wasteland' being a metaphor for the largest concentration of plastic in the ocean. Thanks to the success of likeminded people wanting to rid the oceans of plastic litter, they created the Plastic Free Communities campaign to take into account all of the inland communities that wanted to act! There are now over 900 communities signed up! Surfers Against Sewage use five objectives for communities to work towards. Once they have achieved this the Town will be awarded ‘Plastic Free Status’. Businesses and the Town will then be awarded business plaques and certificates when the whole community is approved. Seaford was awarded Plastic Free Town status in 2020.
