Businesses in Rugby unite for litter pick – collecting 62 bags weighing a total of 180kg
Employees from several businesses based on Rugby’s Swift Valley Industrial Estate joined forces on September 15 to make a positive difference to their local environment ahead of World Cleanup Day on September 20.
The litter pick was organised by Häfele U.K. Limited, which invited neighbouring businesses to take part in the community initiative. Volunteers from the Master Locksmiths Association, John Dwyer Bakery, H.W. Coates and GYS joined the effort, helping to clean roadsides, pathways and green spaces across the industrial estate.
The team of 27 volunteers collected an impressive 62 bags of litter, weighing a total of 180kg.
Staff at Häfele said they were delighted to see so many local businesses come together to support World Cleanup Day.
"The fantastic turnout and the amount of litter collected demonstrate what can be achieved when organisations work together for the benefit of the local community and environment," said a spokesperson for Häfele.
