Medway Council initiatives

At Jaspers we are actively committed to the following initiatives run by Medway Council.

refill - stay hydrated

Medway Council Refill initiative

Have you #GotTheBottle? Save money, stay hydrated and help prevent plastic pollution.

In the UK we use 7.7 billion plastic water bottles each year, only half of which are recycled. If just 1 in 10 of us refilled just once per week, we’d use 340 million fewer plastic bottles every year.

The Refill scheme is part of Medway’s Sugar Smart campaign. Through the campaign they want to encourage people to drink more water, reduce plastic pollution and consume less sugar from fizzy drinks by making it easier to fill a reusable bottle on our high streets for free.

We have a water station in Jaspers so just pop in and fill up.

To find other water stations in Medway download the Refill app to find your nearest one. Fill up your water bottle on the go with Refill.
