The Money Group, Truro. An Issue Regarding Litter
Adam Desmonde
I'm currently in training for an event called Tough Mudder;
This is a 12-mile obstacle course
and run, which I’m doing partly for charity, and partly for my stag do before I
get married early next year.
I've already started training and
as someone who is much happier in the water than long distance running have
been hitting the road around Threemilestone and Truro slowly getting myself in
shape.
It was whilst training in Truro,
running my way out of the center and building up a head of steam that I ran
past Falcon House, home of the Money Group. As I stopped to take a quick stretch
before hitting the hill climb I noticed all around the grassed area beside
Falcon house and Moorfield car park were cigarette butts, indeed the litter was
so bad in some areas you could hardly see the grass.
I called the Money Group a couple
of weeks ago and expressed my concern regarding the state of the area. To their
credit they held their hands up and recognized it was an issue, indeed they
have already spoken to their staff and asked them to desist from littering
outside the building.
We talked about a number of
options and agreed that a solution would be the installation of cigarette bins
in which employees could dispose of their litter and keep Truro tidy. We agreed
I would raise the issue with the City Council, ask for their views on how to
address the situation and write back to the money group with a recommendation.
I await the city councils
findings
