We started at The Paddocks open space intending to clear there and the Pound Lane / Kathleen Ferrier Crescent area but as we left the park and started in Pound Lane we found a huge amount of litter in the bushes as well as some long-term fly-tipping.
Young Nola joined us for her first pick and said she really enjoyed it :-)

We picked around the Laindon Community Centre today and then down High Road, Laindon to the station, concentrating on the hedgerows and the steps leading down from either side of the railway bridge to the industrial estate; which were a mess!
Afterwards teas & coffees provided by LCC for the pickers and home made rock cakes by my wife, Karen :-)
In addition to the bags (which weighed about 60kgs) we collected loose wood, metal & plastic weighing about 15kgs, 81 glass bottles & jars, 2 nitrous oxide cylinders and 38 vapes..

We picked Church Hill, Laindon but having gone into the woods at the side of the road we then spent 2.5 hours clearing a 90sq metre area of the woods that was full of litter that had accumulated over years and had obviously been fly-tipped.
In total about 124kg of rubbish collected.
