Stirling’s Students’ Union is offering a sustainable deal for students on a budget to help them set up their home at the university.
For £5, students can pick up a pack of high-quality household items donated by pervious students, which includes: a pot, frying pan, baking tray, two plates, two glasses, two mugs, two bowls, two forks, two knives, four spoons, one chopping board, and one utensil.
You can order this via the link in the Stirling Union’s Instagram bio, and collect it in person at the Green and Blue Space on campus.
They will also be available at the Welcome Week pop-up shop on campus.
The Green and Blue Space is the Union’s sustainability hub on campus. It is a student-led initiative, delivering sustainability campaigns and activities to support the campus in a changing climate.
In store you can find vegan pick-n-mix, dispensers to refill your containers, plastic-free soaps, shampoo and body wash. They also sell second-hand clothing, electronics, and homeware.
It is also home to a bookable dedicated project space, used for workshops and environmentally-focused club activities.
This starter pack is perfect for international students who wish to avoid travelling with a frying pan, students on a budget, and students wanting to set up their kitchen sustainably.
Recycling past students’ unwanted supplies reduces waste whilst simultaneously reducing the need to buy from unsustainable shops.
You can support initiatives like this one by donating your unwanted items to the Green and Blue Space, supporting fellow students, the Students’ Union, and the environment.
