Hello 2022! We’re excited to be at the start of another promising year and looking forward to implementing environmental projects to help us live a more eco-friendly, sustainable life. Read on for tips and tweaks that can help ourselves and the planet.

Hello from Cllr Sarah Dyke our Portfolio Holder for Environment

Belated Happy New Year! Have you made some sustainable New Year resolutions? I’ve pledged to grow more of my own veg, improve the wildlife-friendly space in my garden to attract and support more wildlife, plant a tree, buy fewer clothes and when I do, I’ll choose 2nd hand, fair trade, organic or recycled.

I attended our SSDC Community grants webinar on 12th January where it was great to see such a high attendance of people interested to know how the council grant scheme can support environmental projects. If you don’t already know about these grants check out the feature further on.

Please do share Get SuSSed with others and help spread the environment message. It’s easy.. just see the Psst…Pass it on section below. We’ve moved it to pole position this month so you can think about who might like to read it while you are. Thanks!

Best Eco Wishes Sarah x
