The Met Police Business Crime Hub has produced a DOCUMENT for businesses, including:

CLEANER

The recycling, business waste collection and street cleaning services provided by angel.london will continue as normal until further notice.

With less people on the streets our street cleaners are taking on extra tasks including weeding, graffiti removal and deep cleaning of street furniture.

If you require recycling bags and stickers, please email us on christine@angel.london or call 020 7288 4377.

BRIGHTER

Oganisations in the Angel are already showing incredible spirit in the face of adversity.

The King’s Head Theatre, like almost all of our cultural venues, has closed its physical doors, but they remain open in an online form. Each weekday from 1pm they will be live streaming a different perspective on the theatre; from artists’ talks to skills sessions.

So spread the word, log in to their Facebook or Instagram channels and feel part of the Angel cultural community….
