Clocks

Hi everyone,
You've all remembered the clocks go forward this weekend, right? Hurrah for the start of spring! This Sunday is also a great moment to go greener.
When you're going around changing all your clocks, change the timer on your heating controls too. Chances are you can now use your heating less, turn the temperature down - or even turn it off completely.
Remind your friends too - share our graphic on Facebook now:
The clocks changing means it'll soon be time to spring clean - but did you know you can do an energy spring clean too? It'll save you money and help the environment.
Here's how to green-up your clean-up!

• While you're up tackling the cobwebs on the ceiling lampshades, swap your bulbs for energy-saving ones.
• Cleaning duvets/curtains/spare bed linen? Put a full load on a 30°C cycle if you can. If we get the weather, hanging them out is free and greener than the tumble dryer.
• Having a good clear out? Donate old clothes, books and household items to local charity shops instead of throwing them away.

But before all that - remind your friends this Sunday to turn their clocks forward and their heating timer back!
