Firm ‘adopts’ a road to fight litter

A COMPANY is about to make history by “adopting a road” in Co Cork — spending €10,000 a year to keep it litter free.

Ballymaloe Country Relish, based in Little Island, is to sponsor the clean-up on the N25 between Little Island and Midleton.

Its founder, Yasmin Hyde, said it was time businesses put back something into their communities and she intended to lead by example.
