Make your pledge for a cleaner, safer, greener Slough
Slough Borough Council will be encouraging residents to make their pledge for a cleaner, safer, greener Slough at a series of road shows being held in the town.
As part of the council’s cleaner, safer, greener campaign, staff will be asking residents to make a pledge, such as re-using carrier bags and taking their litter them with them.
Staff will be adorned with pledge leaflets and some environmentally friendly freebies at the road shows on 30th August from 10am to 1pm at the MyCouncil offices on the High Street, and 31st August from 10am to 1pm at Slough Tesco Extra, Wellington Street.
All residents who make a pledge will be entered into a prize draw to win £150 of Stows Cycles vouchers or £50 of Wexham Nursery vouchers. The draw will take place on 1st October.
Residents can also make their pledges online by logging onto the council's Cleaner Safer Greener webpages
Denise Alder, director of the green and built environment at Slough Borough Council, said: “We have had a fantastic response to the pledges. At Big Green Day Out in June we had 345 pledges made by residents who wanted to make a difference and help the environment.
“These road shows are for residents to, not only make a pledge and pick up some goodies, but to come and talk to us about our campaign.”
Cllr John Edwards, commissioner for Slough public protection, said: “The campaign is really picking up pace, and many residents have already had their say on what changes they are going to make to their lives and the town.
“We want more residents to sign up and make their pledge to show that Slough residents are really proactive in making the town cleaner, safer and greener.”
