Staff at Tunbridge Wells Recycling Centre have been recognized for their fun display of discarded toys, bringing smiles to visitors.
Tunbridge Wells: Workers at the recycling centre are getting some well-deserved praise for their quirky display of unwanted toys. It’s all about spreading a little joy, and they’re doing a fantastic job.
These staff members have been collecting discarded cuddly toys and setting them up on a grassy bank at the dump on North Farm Lane. It’s become quite the sight!
The display features a mix of characters, including a reindeer, a husky, and even Humpty Dumpty perched on a wall. It’s like a little toy party at the recycling centre!
Clayton Schlimper, a local resident, stumbled upon this cheerful scene after a New Year clean-up at home. He couldn’t help but share his delight with KentOnline, saying it really brightens up a mundane task.
He mentioned how the team at the tip always tries to inject some fun into the experience. They even dressed up a mannequin as Trump for Halloween, which was a hit!
After posting a photo on Facebook, Clayton was flooded with comments from other locals who loved the display. It’s become a popular attraction, with many looking forward to seeing what new additions pop up.
One visitor said, “I always love seeing these when I visit; it makes me chuckle to see a new one added.”
Another person chimed in, calling the staff a “cracking bunch” and expressing excitement about the new toys each time they visit.
Some residents even suggested seasonal displays, like an Easter theme, to keep the fun going. It’s clear that this little initiative has made a big impact on the community!
Comments like “How lovely! What a shame they are unwanted” and “This made my tip journey the other day!” show just how much people appreciate this lighthearted touch.
