Richard visits the Plastic Free School Club at Edward Peake

Edward Peake

Last week, Richard met with the Plastic Free School Club at Edward Peake Middle School in Biggleswade during Great Big Green Week - the UK's celebration of community action to tackle climate change and protect nature.

Speaking after the visit, Richard Fuller MP said:

I was delighted to meet with the Plastic Free School Club to see some of the measures they had put in place at Edward Peake since my last visit which have enabled them to achieve the Plastic Free Accreditation.

Thank you to Mrs Burr for inviting me and to the students for their achievements in plastic reduction and for their insightful questions on wider environmental issues.
