After shaking the sand out of my trunk, I hit the road again and headed for the town known as “The Fair City” – Perth!
I stopped off outside Perth Concert Hall for a chat with Connell Northcott, Matthew Jackson, Maggie English and Abbie Maclaughlan from St. Ninian’s Episcopal Primary School, who were there with Kim Young, Waste Minimisation Officer from Perth and Kinross Council.
People across the Perth and Kinross region have recycled a total of 5,000 tonnes of paper, cardboard, cans and plastics and a further 4,000 tonnes of glass. It shows that local people are really starting to realise the importance of recycling, and I hope they can continue to do more to recycle household waste.
My travels across the length and breadth of Scotland are still ongoing. I’ll be continuing to post clues about my next visit on Twitter and Facebook – by posting your guess as to where I’ll be next you’ll also enter a prize draw to win a £100 food hamper courtesy of SPAR.
