Thanks to good work by the Liberal Democrats on the city council, almost half of the household waste in Cambridge is now recycled.

The latest figures show that more is being recycled this year than 12 months ago.

In May there will be a new house-to-house collection of used batteries. Later in the summer you will be able to take plastic pots, tubs and trays to the recycling points in locations such as supermarkets.

Andrea Reiner said, “I’m proud that we introduced door-to-door recycling in Cambridge. Labour opposed it.”
