THE Monks Cross Shopping Park has joined the Smarter York Spring Clean campaign to tidy up areas of the city.

Members of the management, cleaning and security teams joined other volunteers on Monday to pick up litter, prune hedges and generally tidy up the Huntington area.

Centre manager Katherine Sharp said: “We saw the opportunity to volunteer to help tidy up the area as a great opportunity to put something back into our community. Ensuring the areas we all live and work in are places to be proud of is important to us and we’re looking forward to making a difference.”
