Pupils urged to join plasticwaste fight

Pupils are being invited to take part in a series of interactive activities to learn about plastic use and recycling, including a tour of their local Asda store.

In March, the supermarket announced it had removed 6,500 tonnes of plastic packaging from its own-brand products during the past 12 months.

Catherine Mc Callion, Community Champion, at Asda Larne, said: “As well as using less and recycling more plastic ourselves, we want to help our communities to do the same.”

Catherine can be contacted on 028 2826 8500 to book a tour of Asda Larne for school groups.
