🥕🌱 Be Part of Something New for Whitnash! 🌱🥕

Nourish Whitnash is preparing to launch a new **Community Fridge** at Whitnash Methodist Church, and we're looking for volunteers to help bring this exciting project to life.

The Community Fridge will help reduce food waste while making good food available to everyone in our community in a welcoming, stigma-free way. Before we can open our doors, we need a team of local people who share our vision and want to make a difference.

Could you help with:

📦 Collecting and organising food donations
🥕 Stocking and maintaining the fridge
👋 Welcoming visitors when we open
📋 Supporting the day-to-day running of the project
🤝 Helping us create a friendly community space

No experience is necessary – just a willingness to get involved and support your local community.

This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of a new initiative from the very beginning and help shape a project that will benefit Whitnash for years to come.

If you'd like to join the team and help us get the Community Fridge up and running, we'd love to hear from you. Send us a message for more information.

Together, we can reduce food waste, support our neighbours, and build a stronger, more connected Whitnash. 💚

For the next 3 months, Healthwatch Warwickshire will be listening to people’s experiences of using the NHS 111 service or visiting an Urgent Care Centre or Minor Injuries Unit.

NHS 111 helps people to get the right physical or mental health advice and treatment when they urgently need it.

Urgent Care Centres, otherwise known as Minor Injuries Units, can be used by patients over the age of five with minor injuries or illnesses. Trained nursing staff can provide an assessment and give advice and treatment which could include X-rays or pharmacy.

Visit our website for info on how to share your experiences of:
-NHS 111
-Urgent Treatment Centres
-Minor Injuries Units
with us, on our anonymous survey.

Energy saving tips to make your home warmer for less this winter

Want to make your home more energy efficient and save money at the same time? By taking a few small steps, you could cut your annual energy bills by around £100.

1. Reduce your boiler flow temperature
Most combi boilers are set too high. Lowering the flow temperature to 60°C makes your boiler run more efficiently and could save you money. If you’re over 65, have young children, or health conditions, just make sure your home stays warm enough.

2. Find and fix draughts
Check for gaps around doors, windows, floors and pipes. Look out for light shining through, listen for rattles on windy days, or feel for moving air. Seal what you can, but don’t block essential ventilation like extractor fans.

3. Turn radiators down, not off
If you’re not using a room much, turn the radiator down a notch rather than switching it off completely. This helps avoid damp while still saving energy.

You can also cut costs by installing a free smart meter, which helps track energy use in real time, and by checking your tariff to see if you could switch to a cheaper deal.
