We are a group of volunteers who want to keep the Prittle Brook Greenway in Southend-on-Sea clean and tidy. We undertake regular litter picking sessions along the pathway. We cover the Leigh stretch once a month on a Wednesday morning and the Prittlewell/Westborough stretch once a month on a Saturday morning. Equipment provided.
Next litter picking session:
Wednesday 10th April at 9.30 am. Meeting point: entrance to Greenway on Blenheim Crescent, Leigh-on-Sea SS9 3DJ
