Black Friday is seriously hurting our planet. 80% of items bought on Black Friday – as well as the plastic packaging they arrive in 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️ - will either end up in landfill, incineration or low quality recycling. Glad to find it’s #BuyNothingDay this Saturday!

I find it hard to reconcile the green zeal of XR/modern teenagers with the appalling waste left at festivals etc. I am glad some if it gets reclaimed, but so angry at the attitude shown by so many. bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-eng…

"This lot can save many lives during the winter"

Hundreds of items from Leeds Festival were collected by a Hull homeless project.


This is an inspiring story, amazing challenge, and a great project if it can get the funding . see virginmoneygiving.com/fund/Lucy100 .

uk.virginmoneygiving.com/charity-web/ch… Well on Saturday (12th)Lucy is going to attempt the Double Marathon Boston - Lincoln - Boston 62 miles. Starting at 0500 hrs. I will keep posting on her progress but please if you are able to cheer on in person or virtually it will be greatly appreciated.



I had no idea there was a National Biscuit Day to celebrate my addiction!

And to finish…. It’s National Biscuit Day on May 29th! The recipes of many biscuits changed last year. How would you use the following facts? #CoreMathsChat
