M&S moves towards a plastic-free future
Marks and Spencer has announced that it is introducing wooden cutlery to all of its stores in September 2018 – and that includes Lewisham.
That means:
- 2 million plastic straws will be replaced by paper straws
- 75 million pieces of plastic cutlery will be replaced by wooden cutlery
What’s more, M&S is one of Lewisham’s many stores that will refill your water bottle free of charge.

These are just some of the steps the team is making to remove single-use plastics from the whole business.
