The charity making life better by water

Bags of Help from Tesco

We’re set to benefit from the 5p carrier bag charge thanks to Tesco’s Bags of Help programme.

Bags of Help logo

Bags of Help offers community groups and projects in each of Tesco's 390 regions across the UK a share of revenue generated from the five pence charge levied on single-use carrier bags.

From 27 February until 6 March you'll be able to vote in selected stores for who should receive the £12,000, £10,000 and £8,000 awards.

These are the seven projects we're involved in along with the stores where you can vote:
