Many competing events today so only a small party for our autumn litter pick. Our half-yearly efforts are paying off because the amount of litter we collect has reduced each time.
In addition to the usual drinks cans and bottles we found the remains of kitchen units, a cushion, a traffic cone, two footballs (one in very good condition) and part of a climbing frame.
In the picture is just some of the rubbish collected, Sean left two bags at home to go into his dustbin and Shirley, the Neighbourhood Warden had half-filled her van.
Thank you to Shirley for joining us and providing bags and litter pick tools – we’ll do it again in mid-March.
A question – If dog-walkers are considerate enough to bag up what their pooch deposits. then why do they then fling the filled bag into the woods?
