The composting bug has hit South Yorkshire with more and more people discovering the benefits of transforming kitchen and garden waste into a free nutrient-rich food for their garden.

A campaign to promote more home composting is being run by the Barnsley, Doncaster and Rotherham Waste Partnership and Renewi, the firm behind the award-winning waste treatment facility at Manvers.

Children were invited to produce something creative to promote composting.

Winners in the children’s category were five-year-olds Jessica Fleetwood and Lara Knowles, Lucien Knowles, aged seven, eight-year-old Matiee Ullaha and Rosa Bartlett, 10.
