Congratulations on Beautiful Scotland Success
Councillor Richard McCready, Labour Spokesperson for Leisure, Arts and Communities on Dundee City Council, today congratulated the representatives of Dundee who were successful at the Beautiful Scotland awards yesterday. Councillor McCready believes that taking a pride in the appearance of our communities and a pride in our environment is very important.
Councillor Richard McCready said, 'I am delighted to offer my congratulations to those who were successful form Dundee. The City Council won the CIWM Scottish Centre Trophy for the second year in a row for our care of the environment, Broughty in Bloom won a Silver Gilt Medal for Broughty Ferry and Ardler won a Silver Medal for an Urban Community and Bonnie Dundee won a Silver Medal for the city as a whole. I would like to offer my congratulations to everyone involved. The involvement of volunteers from the communities concerned is very important in winning these awards. There is also a lot of hard work done by staff members from Dundee City Council and they should also be congratulated.'
'This work is important and in times of economic difficulty it is easy say that this is the sort of effort that could be cut. The city should be proud that for the second year in a row we have won an award for improving cleanliness in the city and for showing a care for the environment. It is important to the quality of life of everyone in the city that we live in a clean city with an excellent environment. I know that there is much more to do on this issue but it is important that efforts already made are recognised.'
