Welsh Capital will stay squeaky clean


McDonald’s provides boost to Grassroots football


FOR Cardiff has announced the permanent extension of its deep cleansing programme across the city, following the success of its six-month pilot scheme.


The commitment to keep Cardiff looking spick and span is part of FOR Cardiff’s pledge to make the city more welcoming for visitors.


The Deep Cleansing team will continue to react to cleaning requests from businesses as a permanent additional service to the everyday cleaning work Cardiff Council carry out. Making it offi cial, FOR Cardiff has invested in a fl eet of branded vehicles, equipment and uniforms to make sure the cleansing team are easily recognisable when they are working on the streets.


During the six-month pilot, the deep cleansing team have successfully dealt with over 300 cleaning requests from businesses and Street Ambassadors, making over 70 shop fronts sparkle and removing graffi ti from 250 spots across Cardiff.


Executive Director of FOR Cardiff, Adrian Field, said: “The pilot scheme has been a huge success and based on the positive feedback from our city centre based businesses, we are now able to commit to deliver the service for the next few years. “Our mission is to make Cardiff more welcoming, vibrant and infl uential and having clean streets plays a big part in that. We want to give visitors the best impression of the city and ensure Cardiff continues to build a positive reputation as a clean city, especially with major events like the NatWest Six Nations tournament, the Anthony Joshua fi ght and the Volvo Open Race happening in the next few weeks and months.” The


extended deep cleansing


programme is just one in a long list of projects FOR Cardiff will be rolling out across the capital in 2018, covering 130 streets stretching from the Principality Stadium to Newport Road and Butetown to Cathays.
