Will the straw ban affect you?

Hello all, we’ve had a request from a newspaper who are interested in speaking to someone about the impact the straw ban will be having on them.
Obviously in some cases, the ban will be relaxed, but the journalist is especially keen to get a feel for how important these issues are to some.
Ideally you'd be available to answer some questions tomorrow afternoon, which is obviously quite short notice, so if you'd be willing to speak to the journalist, please get in touch with Bernie (pressoffice@scope.org.uk) and she'll be happy to brief you on what'll be involved.

I have researched and found alternative suppliers offering non-plastic and take some with me everywhere.

I’m available to answer some questions. What do I have to do?

no as I have already switched to metal straws and if I do need to use plastic for any reason I wash and reuse
