A new bin has been installed at the Mundy Playing Fields in Thornbury.

The bin, which has separate sections for litter and recycling has been funded by the town council.

Chair of the Environment Committee, Cllr Matt Stringer, said: “The new recycling bin will hopefully be very much welcomed by the many users of the Mundy Playing Fields. We hope that we can all work together to reduce the amount of waste that ends up in landfill."

The Committee is also planning the further development of its environmental area in the Poulterbrook section of the Mundy Playing Fields. This will include the planting of additional trees and wildflower areas, as well as a picnic bench made from recycled materials and a further recycling bin.
