Founded by councillor Ed Gemmell in 2019 (4 October is the feast day of St Francis of Assisi who it the patron saint of the environment)

The aim is to…
1. get everyone not to use a disposable cup for one day while raising awareness of the massive waste problem caused by disposable cups

2. get disposable cups withdrawn or banned completely

3. help in the battle against global heating and climate change.

Every 4th Oct, worldwide.
