1st South Woodford Society Litterpick

23:00

1st South Woodford Society Litterpick 11am South Woodford Station Over 30 members of the South Woodford Society and members of the public came along to help clean up South Woodford on Sunday 13th May. We met at the station and split into three groups who litterpicked along sections of Pulteney Way, Chigwell Road, Hermon Hill, Charlies Browns Roundabout, George Lane, including flowerbeds opposite The Shubberies and outside M&S. We collected over 20 bags of litter and another 5 which were recycled. It was a surprising fun morning, full of good weather, community spirit and a real sense of achievement! Special thanks to our young volunteers who seemed to have the energy to go on all day! Main bugbear are cigarette ends - just stop the drop!.

The picker uppers
Starting from a group of two, and hoping to grow, the mantra is 'if it's being dropped, then it needs picking up' ...we are going to fulfil this task, and hope this encourages less dropping, and more picking! If you see rubbish, don't tell us, pick it up yourself!

Tidy Tetbury Team
The Tidy Tetbury Team aims to bring together all those who want to see Tetbury kept tidy and looking good and who are happy to help achieve this by coming out to pick up litter. At the moment, we think that the obvious areas that need tidying up from time to time are likely to be The Rec, the area by the old railway shed, Love Lane (between Tesco and The Chipping) and the path behind Hampton Stores that leads to William Romney's School. But we also think that the Tidy Tetbury Team should be there to help and join in with anyone who wants to tackle the litter problem in their part of Tetbury. Our aim is not only to keep Tetbury tidy but to have fun and make new friends as we do so. Please join us by clicking on the "Join this Group" button on the right of this webpage and we will keep you posted on future events.
