Our creative design agency responded to a request on Twitter from a local resident who was working with the local primary school, scout group and the Wythenshawe Waste Warriors
to keep Wythenshawe’s green spaces tidy. The new sign for the local park was designed by the children and digitised by Astwood so that it can be used on signs and posters.
