Saturday, 21\u00a0March 2020 at Rowton Hall, 11am until 4pm \u2013 Sustainable Spring Fair<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cheshire West and Chester Council\u2019s Waste\u00a0team are currently focusing on textiles and how climate change is affected by fast fashion.\u00a0 The way we make, use and throw away our clothes is unsustainable. Textile production contributes more to climate change than international aviation and shipping combined, consumes lake-sized volumes of fresh water and creates chemical and plastic pollution. Synthetic fibres can be found in the deep sea, in Arctic sea ice, in fish and shellfish.<\/p>\n

We like to think that we do our bit to recycle old clothes whether this is at local charity shops or at the kerbside but in reality there is a lot more we can do. With this in mind, we would like to invite you to a \u2018Sustainable Spring Fair\u2019 at Rowton Hall in Chester on Saturday 21 March 2020. The event is open from 11am to 4pm for you browse around the small traders selling their sustainable products, attend workshops about mending clothes and being creative with textiles, demonstrations and find out what you can do to reduce the amount of clothes you throw away.<\/p>\n

Wednesday, 25th March, 4pm until 8pm at Town Hall \u2013 Chester Northgate<\/strong><\/p>\n

A \u2018drop-in\u2019 event is being held in the Palatine Room when residents and businesses will be able to ask questions about the\u00a0Chester Northgate<\/strong>\u00a0programme including the forthcoming drainage tunnel works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
