About the Author

Nancy Birtwhistle is a Sunday Times bestselling author, lifelong gardener and Hull-born baker who won the fifth series of The Great British Bake Off in 2014.

Sharing her tips online, she amassed an engaged international following of devoted fans interested not only in her delicious recipes, but also her innovative ideas and time-saving swaps that rethink everyday house and garden tasks to make as little an impact on the environment as possible. Nancy worked as a GP practice manager in the NHS for thirty-six years until she retired in 2007. She lives in Lincolnshire with her husband, dogs and rescue hens. She is the author of Clean & Green, Green Living Made Easy, The Green Gardening Handbook, The Green Budget Guide, Sizzle & Drizzle, Nancy's Green and Easy Kitchen and Clean Magic.
