World Environment Day

Date: 15 Jul 2008

World Environment Day was supported in the Centre and the Town centre on Saturday 7th June with a number of activities throughout the day. Marks & Spencer had their own stand to promote their 'Plan A' activities and the picture below shows Mrs Harries collecting her Organic food hamper following a competition which was run in the Welwyn Times.

We also had our own stand with eco bags which had been designed by students for us, who had been in the Centre earlier this year as part of a Young Enterprise event. The bags were given free to shoppers who had made purchases of non-food items to the minimum value of £35. The bags had local pictures printed on such as the fountain and Parkway.
