THE GREAT BRITISH CLEAN OFF?

Clean&Green

In 2014, Nancy Birtwhistle won the Great British Bake Off. Now she’s trying to get us all to adopt more environmentally friendly ways of cleaning our homes.

Her book Clean & Green: 101 Hints and Tips for a More Eco-friendly Home aims to ween us off using harsh chemicals in favour of tried-and-tested recipes based on natural ingredients.

The book is available from The Bookshop Mold for £12.99 (with free p&p; order here) and The Guardian offers a summary highlighting 15 of the ideas, including bulk-buying, foraging for soap ingredients, restoring shower screens and removing scuff marks.
