The Gift of Reuse
On the first day of Christmas, let’s rethink our traditions. This year, consider gifting something pre-loved! Charity shops are full of treasures just waiting to be rehomed.
Wrapping Responsibly
Forget single-use wrapping paper! Wrap gifts in fabric, newspaper, or reuse last year’s paper. Get creative and keep it green!
Deck the Halls Sustainably
Homemade or upcycled decorations are a great way to bring Christmas cheer! Make your own ornaments from recycled materials.
Repair Before You Replace
Is your favourite Christmas jumper looking a bit worn? Mend instead of tossing! Repairing clothes helps the planet and keeps your festive style intact.
Five Golden Ways to Donate
Share the joy by donating unused items to charity shops or community centres. Your clutter might be someone else’s perfect gift!
Zero-Waste Feast Tips
Reduce food waste by planning meals carefully, using leftovers creatively, and composting. Enjoy a festive feast that doesn’t cost the Earth.
Upcycling Gifts
Give old items a new lease on life by making gifts from upcycled materials. From candle jars to jewellery, handmade gifts show you care.
Reduce Plastic Waste
Plastic toys and decorations dominate Christmas. Choose wooden or second-hand items instead. Small swaps make a big impact.
Rechargeable Joy
Batteries are everywhere at Christmas. Switch to rechargeable batteries to reduce electronic waste. A small change, but one that counts!
Sustainable Tree Choices
Thinking about your Christmas tree? Consider a potted tree you can use year after year, or decorate a creative alternative.
Thrift and Swap
Need a new outfit for a Christmas party? Swap clothes with friends or shop second-hand. Look fabulous and stay sustainable.
A New Year Resolution
Make a resolution to keep rethinking, reusing, and repairing. Every small step adds up. Together, we can make a difference.
