HELLO LONDON

GOODBYE OCEAN PLASTIC

DRINK WATER THE LONDON WAY. STOP USING PLASTIC WATER BOTTLES.

#OneLess inspires Londoners to ditch plastic water bottles

In 2019, we teamed up with London’s leading tourist attractions, popular destinations, and events to promote how easy it is to refill your bottle with London’s world-class tap water while out and about.

Our message was simple: drink water the London way. Say #GoodbyeOceanPlastic by not using single-use plastic water bottles. 

Instead, we asked Londoners and visitors to turn to more sustainable options like tap water, refillable water bottles, public drinking fountains and free refill points in cafes and shops.

From the minute they arrived in this great city, we wanted to make sure that Londoners and visitors were aware of all the alternatives to single-use plastic water bottles when out and about in the capital.
