The LPRA supports the Maldon "Bags of Life" campaign, spearheaded by PortaBrands (details below)

Following the good example set by Rebecca Hosking, a BBC wild-life camera person from Modbury in Devon (which boycotted 
plastic bags May of this year), PortaBrands approached Maldon 
District Council and Maldon Retail Promotions Group to encour-
age the people of Maldon to voluntarily say ‘no’ to plastic bags. 

Jute and canvas eco-friendly reusable bags will be available from most Maldon retailers from January 2008 for a cost of £2 each. A trial took place in December at the Victorian Evening to find out what people think of them and make sure the design is popular. The eye-catching graphics were designed by Tom Russell, a young local artist who lives in Maldon. 

The ’Maldon has Bags of Life’ reusable carrier has been kindly sponsored by EOL IT Services Ltd, The Blue Boar Hotel, PortaBrands Ltd and the principle of sustainable bags is encouraged by Essex Wildlife Trust to help protect the environment.

"What a great place to have a decent pint of Ale - They have up to three of Nigel's 'Farmers Ales' on tap at any time, and know how to look after it as well"
