Coinciding with World Environment Day 2025, which carries the #BeatPlasticPollution theme, Party Without Plastic®—the UK’s go-to marketplace for plastic-free party supplies—is launching a complimentary guide to help people host chic, sustainable celebrations. The release comes as the business earns accreditation from The Good Shopping Guide and secures a place in the Top 200 Ethical Businesses List.
Now listed alongside respected ethical brands such as Octopus Energy, Aviva, and Neal’s Yard Remedies, and awarded the “Ethical Innovator” title, this honour reinforces Party Without Plastic’s ongoing mission: to make celebrations fun, fabulous, and eco-conscious. Their recognition signals a broader consumer shift towards more sustainable choices when it comes to hosting events.
“We’re thrilled to be named Ethical Innovator and listed in the Top 200 Ethical Businesses List,” says Lorraine Allman, founder of Party Without Plastic®. “From day one, we’ve been committed to helping people celebrate consciously. This award is a powerful validation of the work we’ve done so far, and the values that drive us.”
New Launch: Free Ultimate Plastic-Free Party Guide
To mark this recognition and inspire greener gatherings, Party Without Plastic® is unveiling a downloadable guide titled How to Plan the Ultimate Plastic-Free Party. It’s packed with eco-swaps, clever tips, and sustainable style, offering guidance on:
-
Replacing typical party items like tableware, balloons, and bags with planet-friendly alternatives
-
Eco-friendly invites, both digital and print-ready
-
Straightforward ways to deal with post-party waste
-
A beginner’s breakdown of key eco-certifications
Whether you’re planning a child’s birthday, a wedding celebration, or a summer garden party, the guide proves it’s entirely possible to reduce plastic and waste—without losing the fun or flair.
Shaping a Sustainable Party Culture
As party season unfolds, the timing of this accolade and guide couldn’t be more fitting. Single-use plastic continues to pose major environmental challenges—highlighted in this year’s World Environment Day focus. Yet, simple swaps such as reusable bunting or compostable plates can have a significant impact. Party Without Plastic® is at the forefront of this change, offering thoughtfully curated party supplies sourced exclusively from small UK businesses dedicated to sustainability.
