Local school children from All Saints Stibbard Church of England Primary School in Fakenham, Norfolk, picked up their litter grabbers and set to work on their very own community clean-up operation, to help raise awareness of Greener Together – the co-operative way, an initiative run by Co-operatives UK.

The Conservatives have recently announced policies allowing local people to form community co-operatives to take over council services, and enabling public sector workers to form co-operatives to take over the services they deliver.
These policies are to be welcomed, particularly in one part of the public sector: namely, Children’s Centres.
