Inagural Litter Pick Day

08 Jul 2011

23:00

All We are planning our first excursion around the Templeton Drive estate on Saturday 9th July starting around 10am. Weather permitting we will meet at the play ground area and break off into small groups and tackle areas in the estate. I have attached some documents that i would appreciate you look at and discuss with the kids who will be attending. As much as it is fun and an educational process we also want to ensure that we have the safest experience we can. If its sunny please ensure the kids have caps and or wear sun cream lotion I have got some equipment but i would appreciate if you can wear suitable clothing and take a pair of gloves with you if possible.on the day. I have contacted Warrington council and hope to be given some equipment and bags etc to help us going forward. The plan is to gather up everything we can find and take it back to the play area where it will be divided into what can be recycled.

Once again for ease if you can join the litter action group we have created it will be easier to communicate in future. Please ask your Family ,friends and neighbours to get involved and join in Regards Charlie Ruddy .

North Lanarkshire Dumpers
I am sick of going into the countryside and finding people have dumped there crap, ie Car Tyres, beds, car seats, cookers, and other crap. I would like to be able to stop this happening but I know that will be hard so I am happy to make it difficult for people.

Brighter Uckfield Campaign (BUC Up)
The Group operates under the aegis of the Town Council. Every Sunday morning, at 9.00, a small band of volunteers (open to anyone to attend) meets at the Civic Centre to conduct a 'swift-pick' in the worst-affected areas (finishing at about 11.00). The Campaign has moved onto taking small patches of public land in the town and overseeing planting out and maintenance. The town's annual beautiful gardens competition is organised by the Group. The Group joins the annual clear-up of the River Uck that flows through the town. Weeding pavements and cutting back undergrowth are also tasks that are taken on. Most of this work is concentrated on the town centre, but a network of 'litter pickers' is being gradually established on the estates around the town. Volunteers are provided with a hi-vi vest, a litter picking stick, gloves and refuse sacks - and we even have wheeled trolleys to take round with you to deal with the large amounts of litter on a Sunday morning. The Campaign has its own (Don't be a) "Mucky Duck" logo.
