Gill Hampson and her husband Len haves set a target of going a whole year without putting their black bin out in 2023An eco-minded woman managed to go 10 months before putting out her black bin for non-recyclable waste.
The 62-year-old, who lives in Somerton, said the "biggest challenge was knowing what to do with tiny bits of rubbish" like plastic sachets."I just recycled absolutely everything I could and was careful what I bought. Mrs Hampson - who lives with her husband Len, 66 - said she reduced her waste by not buying non-recyclable items and getting her milk delivered.
She had set herself a target of a year and was "really gutted" when she realised she would not pull it off.She said: "I lived in Germany in the 90s for a couple of years and they were streets ahead of anything we did here."They had bins for paper and glass, tins and plastic went in bags and that was collected once a month.
