Beaminster Area Eco Group need four more volunteers to empty the recycling bins at the Craft Centre and then take it to Bridport Recycling Centre. Each volunteer will have two dates allocated. All that is required are three black bin bags: one for aluminium and two for tetrapaks.
A message from Jackie Riley – Please, please wash your tetrapaks and squash them prior to popping them in the bin. Squashing means we can fit so much more in and makes it easier for the volunteer to collect.
My first volunteer was 80 and managed it perfectly. The recycling team were apparently very helpful. Many thanks. Jackie – 01308 868949

The new lunar cycle begins this evening around 6.30pm. This June, we will get a chance to see both a solar and lunar eclipse. The first will be the Lunar Eclipse, which will happen on June 5th, then will come the Solar Eclipse, on June 21st.
A Solar Eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, which totally or partly blocks out the Sun for a viewer on Earth.
A Lunar Eclipse can occur only on the night of a Full Moon.
It occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth’s shadow. This can occur only when the Sun, Earth, and Moon are exactly or very closely aligned (in syzygy), with Earth between the other two.
In a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse, the Moon moves through a portion of the Earth’s outer shadow. The Earth restricts or obstructs the sunlight from reaching the Moon.
The eclipse starts at 18.45 hrs. but won’t be visible until the Moon rises above the horizon around 21.15 hrs. Look South East. The eclipse ends at 10:04 pm.
The next Penumbral Lunar Eclipse that we’ll be able to see is on 30th November.
June’s Full Moon on the 5th is also known as the Strawberry Moon., being the time of year for ripening strawberries. June was traditionally the month for marriages – it is even named after the Roman goddess of marriage, Juno. Following marriage comes the “honeymoon,” which give may give credence to this Full Moon’s name.
