A Rocha UK's Eco-Tips 2026 - October

Greening your home this Autumn. Tackle climate change and reduce your heating bills by finding and reducing the draughts in your home.

Find the gaps that let cold air in and warm air out (keyholes, letterboxes and gaps around windows, doors, loft hatches and floorboards for example). Do what you can to fix these gaps - there are lots of tutorials on how to do this online. It’s also a good time to prepare for winter by putting radiator reflector foil or baking foil behind the radiator. This will reflect heat back into your room.

Short term accommodation needed

Clare Rabbitt is looking for somewhere to live from 9th November until Christmas. As it is a bit of an awkward amount of time to be looking for accommodation, she was wondering if anyone at church might be able to help her out? She will need to be within commuting distance of the University of Bristol but beyond that is open to anything. She is very happy to pay rent/bills etc. and has furniture that she can bring or not bring. In a similar vein, if not needed she is also on the hunt for some temporary storage for her furniture during this time, if anyone might have any garage space she could borrow (not for all of it - her grandparents can take some, but a portion would be super helpful!). 

If you are able to help, please contact Clare directly or via the office on info@redland.church‍ ‍

Thanks so much

We’re bringing together a wide range of prison support organisations, charities, chaplaincies, churches and community members passionate about justice and rehabilitation.

A time to raise awareness of the complex needs of everyone affected by the prison system - including prisoners, their families, victims of crime, and dedicated prison staff, Prisons Week is a church initiative that motivates volunteers to step forward and give their time and gifts, in prisons and in their own communities.

The event will feature:

You’ll be encouraged and inspired by passionate people working across Bristol and the South West to help prisoners and prison-leavers build meaningful, crime-free lives. 

There will also be delicious food provided by the Key Cafe. 

Whether you represent a church, community organisation, local business, charity, statutory support organisation or are simply wanting to find out more, this invitation is for you!

Please feel free to share this invite with any who you think might be interested.
