Don't be Derek... it's over!

A big thanks to all of you who took part in "Don't be Derek" - the Church Climate Change Challenge is now officially closed!

A year ago, Tearfund launched a new fun challenge called "Don't be Derek" to hundreds of churches across the UK and Ireland to start putting the brakes on climate change – simply by using less energy.

Did you and your church take the Church Climate Change Challenge? Let us hear your thoughts about the challenge and how it went - we'd love to hear from you.

Soon we'll be announcing the name of the winning church, but as for now keep checking this section!

Click here to discover four areas for energy-efficient action: home, church, travel and campaigning.
Take a trip around the interactive house and discover simple ways to use less energy, reduce your climate-changing carbon emissions and even save you money.

We are Christians passionate about the local church bringing justice and transforming lives - overcoming global poverty.
So our ten-year vision is to see 50 million people released from material and spiritual poverty through a worldwide network of 100,000 local churches.
