Want to start composting your food and garden waste but don’t have the equipment? Local councils are offering reduced price composters via GetComposting.com – just punch your postcode in and see what’s on offer in your area. In York you get a ‘dalek’ composter for as little as £8. If you need advice on how to get started, we can help – just get in touch.

You will find more tips of the week on this page.
