Hall & Woodhouse to introduce plastic-free Christmas crackers this festive season

Hall & Woodhouse has invested in plastic-free Christmas crackers this festive season to cut down on the environmental impact single-use plastic has on the planet.
The Christmas crackers and its contents are made from FSC accredited sustainable sources and are fully recyclable.
This is part of a larger and ongoing strategy that the leading independent Dorset brewer has implemented in all of its managed houses across the south, with the aim of working towards being a carbon neutral business.
To date, Hall & Woodhouse has prevented in excess of two million plastic straws and stirrers going to landfill since introducing paper straws in 2017. Additionally, last year Hall & Woodhouse launched a range of reusable, collapsible Stojo coffee cups that are available for guests to purchase in its managed houses.
Mark James, director at Hall & Woodhouse, said: "Over the past couple of years, we have made a number of changes to our business to become "greener" and help to reduce our carbon footprint. This ranges from solar panels at our Brewery, to LED lights in our pubs. This is about doing the right thing, and our plastic-free Christmas crackers are another small step in our green journey."
Hall & Woodhouse runs an estate of 42 high-quality pubs across Sussex. The company plays an active role in the local community through its initiative, The Community Chest Awards, which provides grants to local voluntary groups and causes. In 2018, Hall & Woodhouse awarded just under £25,000 to 24 local causes across the south-east of England.
