A cloth bag-making workshop was held at Vane Farm nature reserve on Saturday. The event was organised by the Plastic Bag Free Kinross-shire campaign. A spokeswoman said, “Around 13 billion plastic bags are used in Britain every year and these bags can take up to a thousand years to break down. Marine animals can mistake the bags for food and then choke on them.” Participants with instructor Andrea Habeshaw of the RSPB (standing centre) and Kinross campaign co-ordinator Sarah Eaton (back right).
