Retail Store Manager Vanessa Ruan presents Kennelva Brooks and her Dad Kenneth Brooks with their Mountain Bike

(The Valley Anguilla) - Lots of lucky LIME customers across the Caribbean are now able to do even more for our planet by choosing to get on their bike rather than into their car or by powering up their new Blackberry with a solar charger.

A competition was run in the summer edition of LIME’s magazine and customers across the Caribbean were invited to text in their tips for living green for the chance to win a top of the range Mountain Bike or a Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220 with solar charger.

David L Smith, Vice President for Marketing and Communications said “When we launched LIME in November 2008 we made a commitment to becoming a greener company. The Caribbean region has a wealth of wondrous natural resources which need preserving and we can all do something towards preserving those resources for the next generation. A great way to do that is by getting on your bike rather than into your car not only does it cut down on carbon emissions but you get fit in the process! Lots of customers had some fantastic green tips and we’ll be sharing them with you in the next issue of our magazine.”

Kennelva ‘Tiny’ Brooks a 6th form student from Sachasses decided to try her luck and using her her dad’s mobile phone text in her ‘green tip’. However she had completely forgotten that she had participated in the competition and was extremely surprised to learn of her and her dad’s good fortune. Needless to say her dad Kenneth ‘Seine’ Brooks was not even aware that his number had been entered into the draw! Tiny say, ‘I really was hoping to win the BlackBerry’; but added as an after thought, ‘my father can use the bike!’

Mark Romney, Country Manager said “LIME continues to work towards its commitment to becoming a greener company, we have just launched our simpler, green bill and we even have a phone on the market that is made completely from recycled material and which is fully recyclable. Watch out for more of our green initiatives in the near future.”
