With only a week to go until The Race is finished, the Big Energy Race team is out and about this week visiting two of the top teams, visiting LESS in Lancashire and the H.Energy Hat Throwers in Herefordshire!

We’re really excited to meet some of the teams and see what everyone’s been doing!

This week is Water Saving Week!

You'll find a huge amount of content on their website, including daily challenges, tips and ideas to help you save water. There's a Water Saving Week Download Pack which includes the Water Saving Week Logo, the Mr Splosh images, a sample press release, posters to download and infographics to share.

Each day of the week focuses on a specific area of water use, linked to these are water saving ideas and a daily challenge, and there's an exciting range of activities to raise awareness about why we need to save water throughout the week. 

Take part, share what you're getting up to for Water Saving Week, and your best ideas for saving water!

Water Saving Week will finish on Sunday the 28th which is also the day of Earth Hour.

A few week's back we mentioned that it was Earth Hour soon. Soon has arrived, and Earth Hour is this Saturday, 28 March 2015 at 8:30 pm local time.

WWF’s Earth Hour is a global event where people switch off their lights for one hour to show they care about our planet. Have you completed the Earth Hour Challenge as part of the Big Energy Race? Get involved and share your evening to get those extra points in before the Big Finale!
