They are now looking forward to arranging more litter picking events and beach cleans in the near future and would love local people to get involved.

As part of their pledge to recycle more and to be ever more sustainable, they now have a supply of biodegradable bin bags. If any Arndale customers can spare half an hour to do some litter picking they can contact a member of the Arndale security or cleaning team and they will provide them with a free bag.
