No one wants to part with their beloved staff newsletter the moment they’ve finished reading it (do they?!) so why not spend a few minutes – or may be a bit longer for those of us less practised in DIY recycling – fashioning a hand or shoulder bag to show off around campus and beyond. You never know, you might just spark a brand new trend.
