BIN crews in Malvern have transformed their lorries to carry special messages for key workers and the public.

Staff decided they wanted to replace the usual promotional messages with thank you messages to all NHS and adult social care staff, as well as other key workers helping with the coronavirus crisis.

One side of each lorry has been decorated with a rainbow thank you message to key workers.

The other features a thank you message from crews with suggestions for how people can continue to support the service by reducing their waste, reusing items and recycling.

District councillor John Raine said: "Our crews have really appreciated all the support they have received from the public that they were eager to say thank you in return.

"Our bin lorries are so visible they also seemed the perfect ‘vehicle’ for showing our NHS, social care staff, and all key workers, how much we appreciate everything they are doing for us all in responding to the coronavirus outbreak."
