Sadly Bath’s recycling contract has now passed from the ‘third sector’ (not for profit) for the first time.  May Gurney has a good reputation, so let’s hope that the need for this PLC to make a profit does not interfere with service to residents.  I am encouraged by Nicola Peake’s comments and wish the Company well. 

The Council is once again silent on the broken promise to collect ‘kitchen’ waste (including cooked food), which would further boost our recycling and composting rate to around 60%, reducing the damage that this organic waste does to the environment and making B&NES the top recycling council in the country.
