David, you’re a volunteer at the Boardmasters

Festival in Cornwall, aren’t you? Can you tell 

us what you do to keep the festival site clean?

Volunteer

First of all, we encourage festival goers to use

bin bags for their rubbish – when they arrive 

we give them a black bag for general rubbish 

and a green one for recycled waste.

What about water bottles and plastic cups?

We’ve got a stall with reusable bottles that 

people can buy – fairly cheaply, in fact. With 

the plastic cups, you get 10p for every cup 

you take back to the stall – we make quite a 

difference to the site, actually.

The fine weather hasn’t lasted at Glastonbury as it’s been 

pouring down with rain this afternoon. Festival goers will be 

glad of their boots tonight as they make their way to the 

stages to watch the headline acts perform. However, 

tomorrow will be dry, according to forecasters, and there’ll 

be some sunshine, which will give everyone time to dry out. 

Unfortunately, heavy rain will hit Worthy Farm once more on

Sunday in time for the last day. Once again, we’re likely to 

see mud at Glastonbury, something that has become the 

trademark of the festival in recent years.
