Welcome to CrowdLeaf’s newsletter.
What a great evening and well done to the Sustainability mic night Friday just gone (20th April) where many people came, including CrowdLeaf’s Ryan Carter, to say their piece about what they are doing to help the environment. A fantastic idea and so many amazing people out there really working hard to improve our planet.
Again, plenty of events to get involved in to help the environment and meet like minded people.
If anyone would like their articles they would like published on CrowdLeaf’s newsletter then please contact us đ

This brilliant website gives tips and ideas about food waste and how to reduce it.
Instead of throwing out or bagging up (to gather dust) all those clothes children quickly grow out of this is a brilliant website to buy or sell unwanted children clothes. It is run by a busy mum who also knows what itâs like with ever growing children and the endless amount of clothes children accumulate.
âLast year a quarter of the clothing we got rid of was simply thrown away. Thatâs a staggering 300,000 tonnes that went into landfill. So many of those items could have been re-used and enjoyed by a another child, instead of contributing to the destruction of the planet.â

Hello and welcome to this weeks newsletter!
How cute is this little bee tucking in to a flower! So nice to see the sunshine finally!
First of all, we want to thank everyone who joined us last week for CrowdLeaf’s Litter pick walk! The turn out was a great success and although we couldn’t clean the whole of the Common in the time we were out we managed to clear a huge amount of rubbish – almost half of which could have easily been recycled!
This month there is so many great events to get involved in so take a look at the Events section to find out what you can get involved in to help the environment!
There is a great event this Friday 20th April – Sustainability Mic Night  – so come and join in!
