Renfrewshire’s free rewards campaign
If you live or work in Renfrewshire and would like to earn rewards and support local businesses and charities, you are invited to sign up to Renfrewshire Council’s exciting new Not Far? Leave the Car campaign, which is now live and runs until the end of December.
The campaign rewards you, through the free to use BetterPoints app, for engaging in a more active and sustainable lifestyle by choosing to walk, run, wheel, cycle and take public transport more often. Participants earn points for their activities, which they can then use to support local businesses by exchanging points earned for exclusive discounts and offers from retailers within the app. There will also be a host of other rewards and prizes on offer and participants can also choose to donate their rewards to local charities.
Taking part in the challenge is easy:
- Download the free BetterPoints app from the App Store or Google Play.
- Register your details, join the ‘Not Far? Leave the Car’ programme and use the BetterPoints app to track your active journeys.
- Reward points are automatically credited to your account for eligible journeys.
The BetterPoints app has helped thousands of people across the UK and Europe to adopt greener and healthier habits.

New Menu January 2022
New school meal menus are now live, providing children with some of the food they love while still keeping within the new food and drink in schools legislation.
Thanks to parents and pupil feedback, some favourites returning will be:
- Chicken poppers
- Sandwich options
- Hot dogs
- Vegetarian sausage rolls
Vegan and vegetarian options will be available, and we will continue to provide medical diets as required.
School meals still need to be balanced to ensure they meet the new food regulations, but children will get their favourites as part of the new menu, just not all the time.
Check www.renfrewshire.gov.uk/schoolmeals for more details.
Well Done Girls!!!
We are so proud of Annie (P1) and Ayda (P5) who have been collecting coppers and lose change so that they were able to buy Greggs Vouchers for those less fortunate or homeless.
Annie and Ayda gave their vouchers to the ‘Help the Homeless Charity’ .
Well done girls, thank you for being so kind and generous at Christmas time.
