Lovely case study for #Sustfest20 and schools. “Harpenden infants school ditches plastic milk cartons to help the environment” hertsad.co.uk/news/pupils-di…. Not too late for schools’ #sustfest20 sign-ups. Sustfest.org/schools-youth

Great news: We have been awarded the Plastic Free School status by the charity Surfers Against Sewage. This means we have cut out at least three items of single use plastics. Thanks to Ms Logan and the eco/trashmob team on our journey so far. @sascampaigns @PlasticFreeHarp

V pleased to see St Albans now 5th (up from 58th) in recycling league table of English local authorities. This was for the year ending March 2019 but only reported in December. The new scheme also saves £400k per year.
