As an online club, we already reduce emissions through not having to travel to meetings. When we do meet face to face, we look at public transport and car share options first.

We have collected empty blister medication packs for recycling and now do this individually. We have conducted litter picks and planted trees.

We are planning to plant homegrown English Oak saplings across our area in November and December to tie in with National Tree Week. We will be working with partners and landowners to find the best sites and give the saplings the best chance of growing.
