The next litter pick will be on Saturday 30th March, when we are meeting 11am at Straits Parade near the bus stop. Many thanks to those who helped out at this litter pick - we were 8 in all and collected 6 sacks of rubbish and 5 of recycling. Of the more unusual finds, some of us came across a surprising number of gloves in a range of bright colours! They were mostly the medical type, but one of the sort for keeping hands warm.

The next Litter Pick will be on Saturday 28th April, meeting at 11am at the 'Fish on its Nose' sculpture on the cycle track near Morrisons filling station. We had a fantastic turnout of 10 people and working in pairs we filled 12 sacks - about half rubbish and half recycling. Most of the areas we covered had less litter than on previous occasions which was heartening and made us feel that our work is effective. Thanks everyone!

11am on Sunday 25th September We'll meet on Straits Parade near the co-op. As usual, we'll start by clearing litter there and decide where to focus on. If there's a litter troublespot or somewhere that could do with a one-time blitz, please let us know. We have plenty of litter pickers, and a number of gloves and hi-viz vests. Just bring yourselves and maybe a bottle of water :-) See you there! Paul & Cath

We worked through from the cycle track near the New Station Way roundabout, down New Station Road, along Brook Road, up through the little lanes onto Beechwood Rd, through the lane onto Radley Rd then down Radley Road to Fishponds Rd and Straights Parade grass/trees/growing areas. We got 3 full bags by the end of our session. We know some people were ill and others couldn't make it today and we look forward to seeing more of you at the next one.
