A charity climb of Snowdon undertaken by green energy firm Biogen has raised a staggering £10,380 for local groups in Gwynedd.

Biogen is set to start work in the New Year on the construction of a food waste plant in Rhondda Cynon Taf, which will create green energy for 1,500 homes.

Biogen and colleagues at Bedfordia Group's Head Office in Milton Ernest raised an amazing £500 for BBC Children in Need last week.

The CEO of the UK’s leading anaerobic digestion company says England needs to step up to the plate in order to keep pace with Scotland and Wales when it comes to developing a clear strategy for managing food waste.
