Attention all Youth Leaders!!
Environmental Action For A Better Leicestershire (ENABLE), the County wide environmental partnership, is launching a new scheme to loan renewable energy resource kits. This resource will add to the eco-school objectives to deliver sustainable education through schools in Leicestershire.
The resource includes a miniature wind turbine, PV cell and solar water heater for use as a teaching resource. We will be also providing a set of lesson plans that helps teachers to link applications of these kits to the National Curriculum. More »
The kits will be available to all the schools in Leicestershire for the term starting 20th April 2009.
Why?
We are witnessing climate change and the Government is encouraging us to pass the message to our next generation – School Children.
What you can use it for?
You will be provided briefing notes with lesson plans integrating to Science, Geography, ICT, CARE, PSE, etc. showing their links to the National Curriculum.
How much does it cost?
You can borrow these kits for free, there will be a small delivery charge or you could collect and return them yourself. You can also spread the delivery charge by borrowing other items from the Resource Box Scheme.
How long can we keep the loans for?
Schools can borrow up to 25 items from the Resource box including these kits for a whole school term. Non-school borrowers can borrow at any time for a fixed agreed time.
ORDER NOW!! There are only 20 sets available on first come first serve basis. To reserve your renewable energy kit, contact Resource Box Officer on 01455 552834 or sherrier@leics.gov.uk
For further information, please contact Hetal Patel on 0116 3057068 or enable@leics.gov.uk « Less

Following requests from regular visitors to local forest sites in the Ashby Woulds and Willesley Area, the opportunity has been taken to produce an information card containing the telephone numbers of landowners and other useful contacts such as the local police, RSPCA and Environment Agency.
The aim of the scheme is to help to look after sites by reporting back quickly to the relevant landowner or other interested organisations any site problems or concerns, such as fly tipping, dangerous trees, shooting, vandalism and injured wildlife. More »
At this moment in time, it is envisaged that the scheme will work on an individual basis. However, should there be a significant demand to undertake other forest related activities, then this could be considered and a more formal group established. Cards are available from the Town Clerk's office at Moira Replan, 17 Ashby Road, Moira. « Less
