Say No to Plastic Vintage

 

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."
— Margaret Mead

This is the tagline, and indeed the mantra for Heather Suttie’s website Say No To Plastic.

The movement was set up by Suttie in October 2007 to encourage us all to stop using plastic or poly bags
.
The group believe that if we all said no to plastic just once a day, we'd all be doing our bit for the environment.

The organisation works in many ways - one if which is by promoting sales of second hand and vintage goods. You can join them for an afternoon of shopping and meandering round stalls selling beautiful vintage & designer and recycled wares - clothing, accessories, bric a brac, second hand DVDs & books, gorgeous gifts, cards and loads more including mini fashion shows and the luxury lucky dip.

Promoting the reduce, reuse, recycle message, it's also a great opportunity to get ready for Christmas for yourself, gifts for others or just something sparkly and lovely to purchase for no reason on a Sunday afternoon.

The bar is also open so you can enjoy a cuppa or a cocktail too. The event also supports The Prince and Princess of Wales Hospice.

Say No to Plastic Vintage is on this Sunday at Oran Mor on Byres Road, Glasgow. From 1pm.
