Boris Johnson endorses CtD for London !
Posted by admin on January 31, 2011
Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, said:
'I want London to become a leading low carbon, energy efficient city. This requires everyone to take action to become far less wasteful. Many people will be astonished that 50 per cent of energy usage in shops can be taken up just by keeping the doors open. The Close the Door campaign is one of the simple ways London's vibrant and innovative retail sector can help us achieve this, whilst saving money off fuel bills at the same time.'

Significant Bristol Charity Retailer joins the campaign
Posted by admin on December 21, 2010
St Peter's Hospice, Bristol’s largest charity retailer with around 50 shops within a 12 mile radius of the City Centre, has joined the Close the Door campaign!
Andrew Huffurd, Commercial Director, said:
"St Peters' commitment to ethical and environmentally friendly retailing is demonstrated each year by the sheer volume of secondhand goods it recycles through its chain of Bristol based shops. It was only natural therefore that we would do all we could to support the Close The Door campaign which has similar green concerns and principles to ourselves.”
