Watched Episode 5 and there are some startling facts in there about charcoal production and imports into the UK. Its a sad fact that, as a population, we are letting ourselves down yet again. I have been just as guilty as many others out there of using the convenient route of 'grab a bag of charcoal while your at Tescos' but I vow to do it no more.

Locally produced charcoal is the next thing to look up.

I have used british charcoal before now and got to say it is far,far better than the stuff you would normally buy,burns hotter and longer so although it may cost more you use less. Just wish it was easier to get hold of. Paul

Me too.... I am also keen to switch to British charcoal, I would be making my own now if I had my own woodland but can't do it in the FC woodland that I coppice.
