The trouble is Bryce Love Shirt , you can't see it. So what do you do? Mike Burton of Albany Hygiene Facilities offers comment and advice

Bacteria and viruses are just about everywhere. Some of them, like common cold viruses, do us little harm. Others, like or pneumococcus, can be downright dangerous in the wrong circu standards of washroom hygiene. Now, on the age-old Jesuit principle 'Give me the child until he is seven years old, and I will give you the man', Albany has undertaken a leading role in educating children to understand the necessity of frequent hand cleaning Preston Smith Jersey , particularly after visiting the lavatory.

The Albany Healthy Schools Programme

The government's National Healthy Schools Programme does not sufficiently cover the hygiene of the built environment that the pupils, staff and teachers inhabit. It also fails to encompass the critical area of infection control within the school.

The Albany Healthy Schools Programme has been launched to help children to understand about viruses and bacteria that cause illness and how thorough and frequent hand cleaning can help to keep everybody well. Albany is making learning about infection and hand cleaning fun for children by running the Albany Max Roadshow, which has been touring independent preparatory schools since October 2009 with a live animated character - Albany Max - to get the message across to the children.

Albany Hygiene Facilities is also offering schools a free A+ Hygiene Audit, which includes a report highlighting non-compliance with legislation, recommendations for hygiene improvement and suggestions for saving water and energy.

Efficient modern washrooms are easier to clean and keep infection-free than older ones, but whatever their age, they must be maintained effectively to minimise infection.
