Join the EcoTrail- NG9 Walking Tour
 Join our two-hour walking tour of the Greening Beeston EcoTrail-NG9, this Sunday 1 November at 11:00am. The tour will stop at several properties to talk about energy saving changes made from low-cost actions e.g. fitting thermostatic radiator valves, to extensive retrofit projects such as internal & external insulation, photovoltaic solar panels and heat exchangers.
This event has been organised in partnership of the Energy-Efficient Homes Upgrade Programme (EEH-UP) as part of the East Midlands Combined County Authority (EMCCA) Festival of Retrofit.
Discover more about creepy crawlies with the Kimberley Bug Trail
 Learn more about local insects as you travel to 7 of Kimberley’s independent businesses, each hosting a trail stop with their own unique bug that trail-goers can search for.
Start your adventure by collecting a trail map from Kimberley Library or any of the participating businesses.
Thinking of buying an e-scooter this Christmas?
 Before you do, please be aware that privately owned e-scooters cannot legally be ridden on roads, pavements, cycle paths or in other public places. They can only be used on private land with the landowner's permission. Riders can face police action and scooters may be seized.
Every year, young people are left disappointed when a Christmas present ends up being taken away because it's being used illegally.
Please check the rules before you buy and help avoid an expensive mistake this Christmas - www.gov.uk/electric-scooter-rules
