“Looking after the environment is so important for our children. It’s about setting a good example for everyone, and just trying to role model, really.

“I think that, ideally, I’d like to be able to recycle, but also work with other business to reduce waste. We’re trying to recycle all our  food waste, so we’re paying extra for our bin, but just generally for the environment, we’re trying to do as much as we can.”
