Happy Christmas from Refill
We can hardly believe that this year is nearly over and we are looking forward to getting out and about more in 2022.
Recently we welcomed two new members to our scheme...Newhaven Fort and the SEA Climate Hub in Clinton Place.

Newhaven Fort will happily refill your water bottle and also welcome you to use your own coffee cup in the café. SEA Climate Hub will also refill your bottle whilst you attend an event or meeting there, see page 10.
You may have noticed on the app that Morrisons petrol station will now refill you water bottle as well. Outdoor water points are springing up all along our coast now, with one opening in Peacehaven shortly and funds being raised for another in Eastbourne. Investigations are being carried out for another one in Seaford as well, but this is in the early stages. The five

we have already are well used.
In the last four years so many of you have taken on board the need to say goodbye to single-use plastic water bottles, for which we and the environment thank you. Even so the litter picking continues, and we are so appreciative of our council teams and residents who do this. I am sure you are all aware that much of it is from take away drinks.
The Refill family and message is now spreading across the world now, so let’s keep it going.
Do let us know via our email below if you run or know of a business that wants to join the scheme or now offers refills for coffee etc – they can sign themselves up using the app or website and add the coffee cup icon.
Please don’t forget you can download the Refill app here to get the location maps to find Refill points https://www.refill.org.uk/get-the-refill-app/ and also register your business and others if you have their permission.
If you would like a Chilly’s bottle or food container which makes a great Christmas gift and will keep your lunch and drinks hot or cold, you can buy one of these yourself from refill.org.uk/buy-a-bottle/ and Chilly’s make a £10 donation to the Refill campaign. Find us on Facebook Refill Seaford and Newhaven as there is a group and a page to follow.
