Elgin: Moray Council Libraries and Information Services Silent Book Walk Wednesdays

Our Silent Book Group is back!

Come to the library on Wednesday 23rd October from 10:00am and chat with Living Streets about how 'A Wee Walk Works Wonders' - learn how short walks in our beautiful local community can be so beneficial for our mental & physical health and our environment, and how you can get started!

Then meet us outside Elgin Library at 11:00am for our popular Silent Book Group. We go for a walk while all individually listening to the same audiobook. We stop for coffee and cake halfway through at Grampian Furnishings, and talk about what we have heard so far. Then we will walk back along the River Lossie to finish, hopefully around 1:30-2:00pm, and see how many of us will continue listening!

Wiltshire: 'Recycle Week' – highlighting everyday items that can be recycled

 

This week Wiltshire Council were delighted to join this year’s Recycle Week, which is organised by Recycle Now and is now in its twenty-first year.

This year’s theme, Rescue Me, aims to empower people to look out for the five items missed most often in recycling collections because they are placed in the household waste bin. This is also a key theme of the Council's ongoing 'Recycling: Let’s Sort It' campaign.

These items include:

• Empty aerosols
• Yoghurt pots
• Toilet roll tubes
• Cleaning spray bottles
• Cans

All of the above items can be recycled in your blue-lidded bin or bag.

To help Wiltshire Council achieve our goal of recycling more, please make sure you are recycling more of the right things, more often. Materials collected for recycling are sent to re-processors to be turned into new products or raw materials to go back into the manufacturing process.

Wiltshire Council have been spotlighting commonly missed items on their social media channels this week, so make sure you’re following them on Facebook and X.
