🌍 Morning Musings with the Elastic Band Ball! 🎾 Every morning, our post arrives neatly bundled with two elastic bands. Rather than tossing them out, I’ve been gathering them into an ever-growing elastic band ball on my desk—throwback to my early days at a mortgage lender, where we once built a basketball-sized one! 🤔 While it’s a bit of fun, it got me thinking more seriously about the costs and sustainability impact. I wonder how much the Post Office spends on these bands each year and if they’d ever consider a return service—imagine getting a few free stamps in exchange for sending them back! Not only would it cut down on costs, but it would also support sustainability goals. At Celtic Financial Planning Ltd, we’re always looking for ways to reduce waste and rethink our resources. This principle sits at the heart of our corporate social responsibility mandate: What do we handle daily, and could we do it in a way that’s kinder to our budget and the planet? ⚠️ So here’s my challenge to fellow businesses: What’s one small thing you’re doing that could be reimagined for a better impact? It’s often these little changes that collectively make a big difference.
