Jo is a passionate and experienced sustainability advocate, dedicated to helping individuals, communities and businesses make meaningful changes for a greener future. As the founder of A Single Leaf South West, she has built a reputation for designing and delivering practical, low-waste solutions that are both accessible and impactful. Drawing on her experience as a high school teacher, Jo ensures her presentations are not only engaging but also structured to maximise learning, making complex sustainability topics easy to understand and apply.

She regularly teaches small group, hands-on workshops such as making low-tox body products and repurposing materials.

Did you know?

One of the most harmful items to send to landfill is food waste.
When organic matter is trapped in airless landfill it releases methane – a serious contributor to global warming.

Compost your organic waste instead to reduce this methane and create a useful by-product.

Did you know?

It’s time to stop cooking with gas! If you’re replacing your oven or cooktop then the most ecological replacement is electric. Electricity is rapidly becoming cleaner in a way that gas can’t.

Did you know?

Recycling isn’t the best answer! It’s far better to reduce and reuse than recycle as recycling (whilst still much better than landfill) requires a lot of energy and water for transportation and treatment.

Did you know?

Aluminium is infinitely recyclable so if you are out and about and need a drink – purchasing something in a can is better than a plastic bottle.

Our Eco Services

Eco Decluttering

Clear home, clear conscience

Reclaim storage space, living space and headspace…All without damaging our ecosystem

Our Eco Decluttering service is an in-person detox of your home. Together we’ll clear out the unused, unwanted and unloved items that are taking up valuable space and find them new homes and purpose on the second hand market or reuse economy.

You’ll find our session cleansing, educational… therapeutic even, as the time and care we take in your home will leave you knowing yourself and your space better.

Taking the clutter with us (we can’t always take very large items), we’ll leave you with a home you love to spend time in and the tranquility of mess-free space.

Testimonial

“I gained great benefit from Jo’s decluttering of my wardrobe and linen. I had no idea I had accumulated so much and the process of letting go of all the excess was so enlightening. What a joy it is to go to my wardrobe now. Highly recommend.”

Compostable take away coffee cups usually go to landfill where they are unable to compost.
