A COUNCIL cleaning team has been named the best local authority team in the country.
Gateshead Council’s Building Cleaning Service won the Team of the Year prize at Wednesday night’s (March 12) Local Government Chronicle Awards, held in London.
Dale Robson, service director for facilities and transport services, said: “This is a tremendous achievement for the team in the face of stiff competition.”
