A team effort helped clear 14 bags of rubbish from the community.

McDonald’s staff from the Trowbridge branch joined a litter pick in North Bradley as part of the Great British Spring Clean, working alongside North Bradley Parish Council and other volunteers to tidy up the village.

The group split into smaller teams to cover more ground, collecting rubbish throughout the area as part of the national campaign.

Mike Guerin, who owns and operates the McDonald’s restaurant in Trowbridge, said: "It’s important that our teams give their time to support the local area and seeing them step up and take part in the litter pick has been incredibly rewarding.

"Their efforts to keep shared spaces clean and litter free help create a better and brighter place for those that live here.

"Seeing our people come together in this way shows the passion and pride they have in the communities they serve."

Five crew members from the Trowbridge McDonald’s joined the group of 20 volunteers.

The Great British Spring Clean runs between March 13 and 19 in England and encourages people across the country to look after their neighbourhoods.

For more than 35 years, McDonald’s crew members have been actively helping to keep local communities’ litter free.

Across the UK, our restaurant teams carry out three litter patrols every day around each restaurant, collecting all litter in the surrounding area – not just McDonald’s packaging.

Recycling units are now available in all restaurants to make it easier to separate plastics.
