THE County Gazette has now given away 500 of our limited edition jute bags.

They have been won by readers who have sent us their pledge to reduce their plastic bag usage by at least 25%.

The stylish jute bags, featuring our Somerset Green Family logo, are reusable so should help cut down the amount of plastic bags being sent to landfill.

Our pledge total now stands at 1,277 – but we want more!

And we’ve still got plenty more bags to give away, starting with another 50 winners this week.

Our campaign is being run in partnership with the Taunton-based United Kingdom Hydrographic Office.

To be in with a chance of winning, make the pledge! Return the form on this page or send us your pledge via our website.

Just click on the ‘Jute Bags’ link on our home page – somersetcountygazette.co.uk The winners will be able to collect their bag from our offices in Taunton – just bring some ID.

We’ll also publish the name and town/village of everyone who makes the pledge.

Please don’t resend your pledge if you didn’t win a bag this week.

Everyone who hasn’t been a winner will automatically be entered next week.
