Royal Society of British Artists' exhibition

The exhibition is an artistic showcase and an inspiring resource, so if you're in central London at the end of this month it's well worth making time to pop in. Works in oil, pastel and watercolour are used by remarkably talented artists to render warmth, texture and light. Otherwise you can see and buy the works online.

Christmas - keep it eco, keep it simple!

Enjoy an eco friendly Christmas by using LED lights, not overbuying food and using a recyclable tree whether it's a real potted spruce or an artificial one. Think about minimising your landfill waste.

New children's book published on paper made from recycled cups

Blending imagination with innovation, Little Coffee Cup and the Big Surprise is a heartwarming tale that introduces young readers to Little Coffee Cup, a spirited character who leaves the comfort of a café to discover the big, wide world. But beneath the playful storyline lies a bigger purpose: to spark conversations about waste, reuse and the circular economy, one cup at a time. With the planet heating up at prodigious rates and plastic waste finding its way to every corner of the globe, it is never too early to get children to realise the importance of protecting the planet.
