Clydebank Shopping Centre has won a top Eco Award. 
The centre is now officially the greenest in Scotland, having secured first place in the commercial category of The Green Apple Environmental Awards.
Clydebank Shopping Centre has reduced electricity by 25%, over the past year.  Overall the carbon footprint of the centre has been reduced by 28.55 per cent, as calculated by the trust.
Centre Manager Andrew Forrester says "staff at every level have contributed to this reduction and to the recycling drive, which has led to 222 tonnes of waste being diverted from landfill over a year.  Being named as Scotland's best commercial entry in these high profile environmental awards is a wonderful endorsement of the work carried out at Clydebank shopping Centre".

Clydebank Shopping Centre is celebrating receiving an important safety award for the first time from the Scottish Business Crime Centre (SBCC).
Andrew Forrester Centre Manager said "This is a very important award and one that everyone connected with the centre has worked hard to achieve.  The award means the standards  and procedures are in place to offer one of the most important things to our customers - a safe shopping environment.  It also recognises the good working relationship that we have with the police, local authority and our retailers.  Our aim for Clydebank Shopping Centre is to attract more retailers and in turn making the centre a more desirable place to shop and to visit.
This of course has wider benefits for the whole town by bringing in more visitors to the area from further afield".

The Safer Shopping Award lasts for two years.
