RBC chewing gum blitz thanks to new equipment grant
We received a further £27,500 grant from the Chewing Gum Task Force, administered by environmental charity Keep Britain Tidy, to help clean up gum and reduce gum littering across the Borough.
The funding has enabled our Streetwise team to invest in three additional electric chewing gum removal machines, building on their environmentally friendly operation over the past two years.
