It’s Green Britain Day
July 10, 2009 by Clare Saxon
Take this as an excuse to organise the mother of all clothes swapping parties, and support Team Green Britain for Green Britain Day today. Victoria Harrison, Picture Editor for mydeco.com takes a look at all the glam green goings-on (involving Wayne Hemmingway and Victoria Pendleton) that are happening at the fun and preppy sounding Team Green Britain.
Victoria writes: Join Team Green Britain today to celebrate Green Britain Day, and show your support by joining thousands of people taking action towards a more sustainable lifestyle.
The day is gathering momentum as celebrities, designers and Olympians join forces to take action towards a more sustainable lifestyle. Olympic cycling champion Victoria Pendleton launched the campaign last week wearing this fabulous Union Jack dress. Especially designed for her by established British designer Wayne Hemingway using 100% recycled fabrics, it has serious vintage and design appeal. Love it!
Joined by her fellow Olympians today, Victoria Pendleton will be calling for everyone to help work towards lowering Great Britain’s carbon footprint by the time the 2012 Olympics arrive in the capital. Developed in association with The Eden project the Team Green Britain website is packed with help and advice on how to get involved. We love the idea of throwing a bring and swap party. Check out the homes and garden section for more info and ideas.
So show your support and join thousands of people take action towards a more sustainable lifestyle. Go team Britain! (You can put your pom-poms down now).
More please!
