Make your own hand sanitiser

Personal hygiene is an important measure in preventing illness from cross-contamination of bacteria or viruses.

This recipe for making your own hand sanitiser is from Mandurah Community Garden members Pamela and Tricia.

You will need:

• 3/4 cup rubbing alcohol (or methylated spirits)
• 1/4 cup aloe vera (we pulped it fresh from the plant)
• 10 drops of essential oils

Blend it together in your food processor or bullet until well mixed then pour into a sterile dispensing container.
