VISITORS to Darlington Market Square were urged to think green this week.

The borough council's Big Recycle Roadshow was in town, offering advice on a range of issues from recycling and home composting to real nappies and Fairtrade products.

The Tees and Durham Energy Advice group was also there to provide free energy-saving light bulbs.

A Marvin the Magician character entertained youngsters on Monday afternoon.

Stephen Harker, the council's cabinet member for environmental services, said: "The roadshow provided a wide range of information for anyone who wanted to find out more about recycling and being more environmentally-friendly."
