Does anyone live in the Rayleigh, Hockley or anywhere local? If so, I’m sure you’ll agree that the Christmas lights/trees are outstanding. I only moved to the area recently but I’m extremely impressed. Ashingdon, my area, is adorned with household /business arrays of lights. Joyous and heartwarming. -

be eco friendly. I’m Brenda. I live in Ashingdon and have just joined Scooploop today. Here are the things myself and a group of neighbours are committed to doing where possible. Reduce energy use 1. Turn off lights and unplug devices when not in use. Switch to LED bulbs. Use a programmable thermostat. Wash clothes in cooler water when possible. 2. Cut down on waste Avoid single-use plastics (bags, bottles, utensils). Use reusable items—water bottle, coffee cup, shopping bags. Start composting food scraps if you can. We have food waste boxes now in our area. Reuse containers and jars instead of throwing them out. 3. Choose greener products Opt for biodegradable cleaning supplies or make your own (vinegar + baking soda). Buy items with minimal or recyclable packaging. Repair before replacing. Walk, bike, or use public transit as often as possible. Share car journeys when possible. Combine errands into a single trip. If you drive, keep tyres inflated and car maintained for efficiency. Eat more plant-based meals (even one or two per week helps). Buy local or seasonal produce. Reduce food waste—plan meals and store food properly. Bring your own containers for leftovers or bulk shopping. Take shorter showers. Fix leaks quickly. Use a water-efficient showerhead. Only run dishwashers and washing machines with full loads. Buy higher-quality items that last longer. Support eco-conscious brands or second-hand shops. Avoid impulse purchases—ask yourself if you’ll use it more than 20 times. -
