On Wednesday, March 19th, we organized a successful litter-picking initiative in collaboration with Molson Coors Brewing Company (MCBC). Our dedicated team made a noticeable difference in the cleanliness of the shared boundary near the railway in Burton-on-Trent.

This initiative not only improved the local environment but also strengthened our community ties and demonstrated our commitment to sustainability.
