Following the success of this event, the restaurant has now invested over £1,000 in four new large-capacity bins for the local community and is planning to run similar large-scale litter picks four times a year.
Ismet Turen, McDonald’s franchisee for the area said: “Its more important than ever we continue in the fight against litter and I would like to thank my employees for giving up their time for this clean up event.
“The team’s efforts were greatly appreciated, and we look forward to the next litter pick.”
The fast food chain has announced that it will be carrying out community litter picks throughout the summer months as part of its new Keep Up the Clean Up initiative.
