This is James’ first post on the Ecoshop blog. During the next few weeks and months I will be adding all the lastest from the Ecoshop. Please check back at regular intervals to find out the lastest!

Cartridge Recycling

Charlie — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 10:43:51 +0000

We are now collecting cartridges to pass on to companies, such as Reclaim-it, who recycle and remanufacture them. In the process, the companies make a donation to any charity that we request. So please deposit any used cartridges in the box inside the ODEF/Physio porch.

Thanks!

Gloria Drozdowicz – Eco Shop Volunteer

We are looking to open the Eco Shop on as many days as possible, so therefore are looking for more volunteers to come forward. If you have a couple of hours spare a week and like the idea of gaining valuable experience that could enhance your CV then do please make contact with us and we will arrange a time to meet up. Alternatively, if you would like to volunteer to carry out research at home, we would be more than happy to hear from you.

Hi hope all is well, hoping to start training end of feb, enrol through ODEF. We are hoping to offer the following:

Introduction to woodland management

Introduction to planning and participating in walks

Understanding biology and environmental studies

Developing skills in garden horticulture

Understanding how to select plants

All of the above are Nationally recognised qualifications so you can work towards gaining a certificate. If you are interested, please contact us at the Eco-shop.

We are also hoping to develop a portfolio of related training, so, if there are any areas within the environmental sector that you feel you would like training on or experience in, drop us a line and we will do our best to cater for your needs. AndyH
