The National Federation of Women's Institutes have given the campaign their invaluable support and now send this statement from chair Ruth Bond:
“As seasoned climate change campaigners, WI members are always keen to prevent energy waste so asking shoppers and retailers to reduce their carbon footprints in one easy step seems a natural fit.
Closing the door is a straightforward and common sense action that everyone can take to make a difference. The NFWI is delighted to back the campaign."
