aim to adhere to good environmental practise in all our business activities. To
achieve this we: - -
Recycle - paper, magazines, junk mail, cardboard, glass, aluminium cans, steel
cans, plastic bottles etc. Food and garden waste is composted and grass cuttings
are used as mulch.

paper etc
- Energy
