The composting seasons is upon us – and to help get started compost bins are available at a reduced price – just go to the West Sussex Waste Prevention Advisors website for this offer.

You’ll also be able to get advice on composting from the Ask Annie blog and sign up for texts for tips on composting.

According to Lionel Barnard, West Sussex County Council’s Cabinet Member for Residents’ Services: “If a third of households in a town the size of Worthing took up composting this could divert about 4,500 tonnes of waste.”
