 to our committee in the last year and particularly Aalish Kennedy and Fiona Malley and they've really they're brilliant they've just come in and they get it and they're really interested in this and Aalish came and said look why don't we make a you know why don't we and really what maybe I should start at the start is to say we'll call it the power of one what can you do and it's it's a big making small changes that everybody can look at what you can do and it's maybe one small thing it can be turned down your thermostat it can be picking up a bit of litter on your way home it can be anything small it could be donating a bag of clothes to a charity shop it can be repurposing and upcycling clothes using a water bottle a reusable water bottle it can be what you're going to see we're all going to see come into the country now is a lot more reusable coffee cups because you're going to pay for the for the coffee coffee cups just things like that these are all simple things that we can all do we just but I suppose we have to make a conscientious decision to to do them you say listen well that's easy don't I can do that and I can do that every day or every week we're just asking people to think about it and what small difference can they make in their day and as part of this campaign just to maybe explain it a wee bit is that we commissioned a professionally made video which shows how you can do things and the power and it's a little story attached to it so that's what we're launching it's very simple video but it's powerful because when you think about the message behind it you go oh yeah yeah that works it's simple it's simple and then we will take it then and we will promote on social media over the over the next few months little ideas encourage the you know the local community to share their comments and to share their photos around the hashtag hashtag power of one LK and and just you know that we can get people engaged and we can show them little examples and just get the conversation going and in a in a simple local way so this is each out of there about about the environment and about sustainability and about climate change and these are these are global issues but this is dealing with it at a local level and in this case it's letter Kenny and trying to pull people together and and and going right down to each individual yeah in the area thinking is there something small I could do yeah or getting the message to those people saying please just think about something that maybe you could do yeah when English came with this idea when the more she explained it to me I thought this is exactly what tidy towns is about this is what we do we go and we look at something and we try and improve the area in small little ways and you add everything up and it becomes something you know and that is isn't that it yeah you add it up and I come something much bigger yes so that's the whole thinking behind it this isn't just a one-off campaign something that's going to last for a week or a month we see this last and right in we're ongoing we would like to we've created it in a way that we it's something that we can use on social media to create awareness and for look for a reaction for and just becomes part of our normal life so we see this as a slightly more long-term thing than something within a week or a month so the hashtag again is hashtag is power of one okay so if someone's doing a little something just recycling upcycling reuse no water bottle whatever it is and they want to you know take a photograph or a short video or whatever use the hashtag spread the word spread the word exactly okay if someone's listening in and think and they're around a lot of Kenny area or in the town and they'd like to get involved what they're thinking you know what if I go forward there I'm gonna be gathering rubbish until the cows come home and I just want to have time yeah it's not it's not like that you know if you have time go to a meeting if you have an hour and a Sunday morning go down to market square just any wee bit helps we have some of our most active people never attend a meeting because they don't want to attend a meeting they've no interest in it and I say that's fine you know there's there's people attend meetings is people that don't attend meetings I think about tidy towns is and it's a great organization it's the sort of thing you know even when people do join us we say to them look come in and join us and don't have to do anything just listen and sort of find what you're interested in and what you're interested in going you know go and interest go have a look at that I mean we've people in there in our committee who are interested in litter control we people are interested in gardening we people interested in biodiversity we people interested in sustainability and they can really pick what they want out of it and some people just say well I would like to give some of my time but I don't know when that will be some of them some people will come down to Neil the 1030 and Sunday some people will do it in their own time it could be a Tuesday morning and they'll send a text into Neil what they've done and they'll coordinate it so it's a very open sort of people do what they want to do because people are busy as well and we're very happy and we're very inclusive like that we're you know anybody wants to do something we just say thank you you know and that don't work around it and if anybody wants to just find out what's going on in the community and that's grand but generally speaking well someone goes to the bother and they do find out they want to get involved in some small way they do yeah yeah all right then and a presence on social media on on Facebook and there's the website as well at a tiny towns yeah yeah tinytowntown.com this this video to launch the initiative will be on Wednesday evening will be a good place to start if anybody wants to get involved 7 o'clock yeah it's a thing that we it's actually a bigger event it's a sustainability community sustainable community letter candy event so there'll be a talk about upcycling and how
