Big Give: Instagram Live with Laura Young

Laura Young, AKA @LessWasteLaura, an award-winning climate activist, environmental scientist, and ethical influencer, started and continues to lead the campaign to see single-use disposable vapes banned across Scotland and the UK. We are increasingly seeing disposable vapes in both our rivers and our seas, where they can impact the wildlife, water chemistry, and more.

On Monday the 4th of December, at 1pm, Laura will join our Campaigns Lead Emma Brisdion, to discuss why we're particularly concerned about single-use vapes, the impact they have on our rivers, how she's been running the #BanDisposableVapes campaign, and what each of us can do to support it.

Not one to miss! If you have any questions for Laura, head over to our Instagram post and leave them in the comments.

We are hosting this event as part of our Big Give campaign, where we are aiming to raise £75,000 between 28th November and 5th December. During this week, any donation to The Rivers Trust made through the Big Give will be doubled with match funding.
