Yesterday the Digital Den was buzzing — Lego robots, VR headsets, and a room full of brilliant Bolton businesses.
Big thanks to @BoltonLibrary & @BoltonDigital for teaming up with us and to everyone who came along to chat, connect, and play.

Bolton SMEs — new WEEE regs are coming. More rules, bigger fines. We’re launching a Recycling Pledge to help you stay compliant, clear your old kit, and do good locally. We collect, wipe, sort, certify. You stay sorted.
