There is no doubt that littering is a constant problem around the streets of Britain and that one of the reasons for this could be because a parents tend to clean up for their children.

This is the normal thing to do, but not making our kids clean up for themselves could lead to them littering in the future.

But the question is how do we get children to clean for themselves without seeing it as a chore? Well below I have suggested two games that could help make cleaning seem more fun.

Pacman cleaning game – The child is challenged to collect all the rubbish in the park or environment they are in including papers, plastics, cans and bottles. They then throw them on the right rubbish bins separating biodegradable from non-biodegradable and then teach their friend or sibling to recycle. This is a simple game but teaches your child to dispose of rubbish properly.

Cleaning marathon game – There are two teams involved in this game, each member of the team must is to accomplish a certain chore while running around a pole, like a mop or brush – this can help to see cleaning objects as something fun.

Cleaning games can help introduce children to cleaning in a positive way rather than just a chore they have to do. They are then able to see it as fun as well as rewarding.

However, when you are not able to get the children helping out with all the cleaning duties or simply need a contract cleaning service, you’ll need to contact Total Clean Services Ltd.

We offer bespoke cleaning services from office cleaning London to waste removal. 

Treating too Many Patients Leaves Hospitals Unclean

According to a new report from the British Medical Association, pressure to treat too many patients too quickly leaves little time for proper hospital cleaning.

The BMA also said hospitals should face sanctions if they fail to implement simple strategies like washing hands with soap and water or using alcohol rubs.

Dr Vivienne Nathanson said measures like deep cleaning and bare ‘below the elbows’ needed to be part of the long-term measures and regular, thorough cleaning of hospitals.

She said: ‘Deep cleaning is a good thing provided you go in and do all the other organisational things and keep your cleaning at a high level.’

This includes proper cleaning of things like the buttons on machines and switches, she added: ‘We are not dismissing deep clean but it does not work on its own.’

The report also said that the areas of a hospital that posed the greatest risk to patients were not always included in cleaning contracts.

MP Andrew Mitchell Claims £19,000 Cleaning Expenses!

The Conservative MP Andrew Mitchell claimed £19,000 worth of expenses on cleaning and decorating his home, it has been revealed.

He spent nearly £12,000 between 2004-05 and 2007-08, including £2,500 on decorating his home and £2,650 on a new boiler.

Mr Mitchell also claimed over £9,000 for cleaning and maintaining the garden at his second home, including a £220 bill for “gardening and shrubbery removal”.

Last night, Mr Mitchell said: “The £2,000 monthly rate that I claim is less than the cost that I have incurred maintaining my second home and is less than the amount I would have been entitled to claim.”

The MP added that the costs for gardening were just for maintenance and, in the nine years since he bought the house, it had been necessary to carry out “repairs, redecorations and renewals” and to buy “a small amount of furniture”.

With a salary of £64,766 a year, Andrew Mitchell claimed £22,831 in 2007/8 on his second home.

Despite this being disgraceful behaviour from the MP, Total Clean would be more than happy provide cleaning services to the Parliament offices in the future, (but perhaps this time they could refrain from claiming it on their expenses).
