Why not use Lent as an opportunity to do something positive for the community – whether that is your family, your road, your school, your town, your borough or your planet? The Philosophy and Theology department is launching a 40 Day Stewardship Challenge, starting next Wednesday 17th February, to coincide with Lent.
The challenge is to do a task each day which has a positive effect on the community in some way, either charitable or environment – some examples of what you might do are:
- Sort out a draw and give one thing you don’t want/need any longer to charity
- Next time you go shopping add an item to the Food Bank
- Plant some seeds for a ‘vegetable garden’ (this could be some herbs or tomatoes etc)
- Pick up a piece of litter on the street and put it in a bin (make sure you have hand sanitiser with you!)
- Make something from the recycling pile (a tealight holder from a tin can for example)
- Walk don’t drive
- Make your own paper
- Make some seed paper
- Upcycle something from your cupboard (making something different that you will use from something your don’t use)
- Make a bird feeder
- Construct a bug hotel
