Royal Horticultural Society


NAWG's on-line "high street".
You'll find high street names here, along with internet communication services (Broadband) and financial services.
You pay no more than high street prices, and sometimes less, as many traders offer a discount for on-line purchases.
Please visit our shop and browse around; every purchase you make raises funds for NAWG, and most retailers tell you exactly how much commission they will contribute to our funds because of your purchase.
Why do they do this?
Because it's cheaper to pay us commission than advertise!


RSPB.
Our allotments provide havens for wild birds (OK, we could do without the pigeons, but even a pigeon's got to eat!)

Buy truly unusual "virtual" gifts from the RSPB shop, help protect wildlife and raise funds for NAWG all at the same time.

How about a sheep? A meadow? Or even a chainsaw?

Good Nature Gifts from the RSPB is a fun idea with a serious purpose. Every gift has a very real, practical purpose out in the wild.Buy one of the virtual gifts for a loved-one and you'll receive a card and voucher explaining its practical value.Eg.

• Give a vulture chick care and help save vultures from extinction.

• Buy a plate of mealworms and help bring sparrows back to British cities.

• A spy-cam will protect wild birds from illegal poachers in the Mediterranean.

• With an albatross protection kit you can help save them from the fisherman’s nets.

A virtual gift is also greener - there is no plastic packaging to throw away.

Stuck for the perfect gift?

This is gift buying made easy. They suggest a gift, they'll gift wrap it and dispatch anywhere in the world. All you have to do is pick one from their suggestions.

Green Books

This independent UK publishing company produces books on a wide range of environmental and cultural issues, and most of their own books are printed on recycled paper.

Their number 1 best-seller is Nicky Scott's excellent little book "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle". I have this book, and I totally agree with their review:

"This easy to use guide has the answers to all your recycling questions. Use its A-Z listing of everyday household items to see how you can recycle most of your unwanted things, do your bit for the planet, and maybe make a bit of money while you’re at it.

'Reduce, Reuse, Recycle' is packed with ideas for cutting your consumption, reducing your rubbish, reusing, and recycling. It will also tell you where your old plastic goes to, what happens to your old glass jars, how they handle waste in other countries.With a comprehensive resources section and information on getting more involved, it's an invaluable guide for anyone who wants to slim their bin and help stop the earth going to waste."

At only £3.95, this little book should be on everyone's book shelf.
