You will be pleased to hear that the Recycling For All It’s Worth campaign is proving a great success in encouraging everyone in Somerset to boost recycling, cut costs and go a little greener. It may have been launched by Somerset Waste Partnership but many parishes, green groups and community organisations are making it their own. So thank you to all those who put the previous newsletter to good use on local noticeboards, in community magazines or on village web sites to get the message out. We’ve heard of the newsletter going up in libraries, village halls, community centres, shops, and even pubs, as well as on many local noticeboards. Attached is our latest newsletter, encouraging better recycling and celebrating Somerset’s Best Bargain: your high-value recycling and refuse service. Do please get this new newsletter out through any channel – print, web, noticeboards, magazines and more – to neighbours, friends and colleagues. I’ve also attached the calendar of collection day changes for the bank holidays – and the Royal Wedding – in April and May. For have printed copies of either item posted to you, do get in touch: recycle@somersetwaste.gov.uk Recycle For All It’s Worth is backing Somerset residents working hard to raise recycling rates from 50% to 60% and save millions of pounds from being wasted on landfill. With landfill tax rising every year, the cost of dumping will soon be heading for £100 a tonne – a Somerset bill in 2014 of £13 million – but everyone in the county can help stop that by slimming their rubbish bin and boosting recycling. Recycling more food waste, cardboard and household plastic bottles will be helped by the roll-out of the enhanced Sort It Plus collections throughout Mendip, Sedgemoor, South Somerset and Taunton Deane. By 1 April, Sort It Plus services will have reached all suitable homes among the 221,516 households of the four districts. From this autumn, West Somerset’s 17,443 households will also be offered the Sort It Plus service. Recycling is far easier with Sort It Plus weekly kerbside collections of food waste, paper, cardboard, glass bottles and jars, food and drink cans, household plastic bottles, aluminium foil, shoes, clothes and even car batteries. To help promote recycling and help everyone in the community do better, we are keen to add to our growing legion of volunteer Recycling Champions. If you know someone who is keen and green, urge them to email us: recycle@somersetwaste.gov.uk Any help you can offer will make a difference and be appreciated. If you don’t want this information, if someone else in your organisation should receive it, or you prefer it in another format – email recycle@somersetwaste.gov.uk and let us know. But please get in touch soon (and let us know how you have used the Recycle For All It’s Worth newsletters). Many thanks

Welcome to our Parish Website, recently I have changed things around a little and combined this Homepage with news and details of what's going on in the Parish and the surrounding area, the main reason being that since the launch of "The Pump" the news has come flooding in from all three Parishes so it makes sense to link to the most recent edition, thus saving an awful lot of typing!, also, remember that all past issues of the Pump for this year are available, go to "The Parish Pump" on the menu above.
As usual I can be contacted by   email here  or call me on 01823 672423 Peter Bowler  Website Admin
The Deane Energy Savers
The Deane Energy Savers have been formed from volunteers across the Taunton Deane area.
Their mission is to conduct energy surveys and to bring people energy saving advice that will lead to lower fuel bills and to help avoid climate change. Each of the Volunteers is trained to City and Guilds Standards, has passed the police security checks (CRB) and will carry an identity card. The scheme works with Somerset West Partnership supported by Taunton Deane Borough Council. The schemes mandate is to find those in fuel poverty (defined as spending more than 10% of their income on fuel for heating) and to assist them to access any grants or discounts that may be available. The surveys are free, available to all and take about one hour; the end result is an action plan with suggestions on how to start saving both energy and money. In addition to surveys of individual properties, our team have undertaken training to give presentations to community groups.Our Flyer
