McKenna Joins in Park Tidy-Up - Ipswich Town News

Town boss Kieran McKenna played his part in helping tidy Christchurch Park this morning following yesterday’s promotion celebration.

Tens of thousands of Blues supporters lined the route taken by two open-top buses as they made their way to the park where McKenna, CEO Mark Ashton and members of the team were interviewed by Simon Milton.

Inevitably, there was plenty of rubbish left by the crowds with the clean-up under way this morning.

Locally-based rubbish removal company Hero Site Solutions Ltd revealed on Facebook that McKenna had joined them to lend a helping hand.
