  1. Sign Up Online To Become An Organ Donor -

    Just as well I did this. I just noticed my card is missing from my wallet. I’ve been a donor for several years now but now I’m on the database carrying the card is not so important.

  2. Give Thanks Before A Meal -

    I do give thanks (usually when I’m not at home)so I aim to give thanks when I’m eating food I prepare (not that my thanks is in any way related to my cooking ability).

  3. Become A Blood Donor -

    I have only donated about 4 times as twice I was unable to donate. I want to try and donate at one of the regular venues rather than just when they come to my place of work.

  4. Shop locally -

    I am definately an advocate of fairtrade and have written to Sainsbury’s and asked to speak to the manager on one occasion.

    I occasionally buy organic but buying locally is a real issue because I have to shop more frequently and it costs a lot more.

    I’m not sure there is a butcher anywhere near me although there are greengrocers and bakers.

    The other problem is that food goes off quicker also and I don’t like wasting food.

    I’m not promising too much but I will try and make an effort.

    I’m not sure that buying household items is an issue i.e. showergel, toothpaste etc. because they all come from the same source so I don’t have a problem with that.

  5. Turn Off The Tap When Brushing Your Teeth -

    Ever since they told us to spit and swallow I’ve only used water to clean the toothbrush at the end. I don’t understand why you need water to brush your teeth.
