Bearpark's Summer Sweep Litterpick will be held on SATURDAY 25 JULY 2015 at 10.00 a.m. Attendees are to meet at Beaurepaire Communal Hall for 10 a.m. Refreshments in the Communal Hall afterwards (around 11 a.m.) Residents of all ages, along with your local parish councillors armed themselves with gloves, hi-viz vests, litter picks and rubbish sacks on Saturday 22 July. We covered the area around Beaurepaire Communal Hall. One elderly local resident said it was nice to see the parish council taking some positive action and know that people DO care about the village. It was really heartening to see the kids making a difference to where they live..

Keep Forebridge Tidy
Keep Forebridge Tidy is a group made up of likeminded individuals within the Forebridge Ward of Stafford who want to keep the area tidy. The scheme works by each volunteer taking ownership of their street, selection of streets or part of their street and keeping it free from litter by conducting regular litter picks. No formal litter picks are arranged allowing volunteers to litter pick as and when they can.

Northern Slopes
We hold a weekly Green Gym session where we litter pick and do low key enhancements to the nature area. Litter and fly tipping has been a major problem over the years but since we started the group over 6 years ago the site is a lot cleaner. Other users tend to pick as they go too.
