Carnival Clean Up 2014

2 Eames Orchard,Ilminster,TA19 0BZ

04 Oct 2014

23:00

Collect litter in side streets off main carnival route and on the Recreation ground. Also empty any overflowing bins. Volunteers and Town Councillors collected 20 bags of assorted litter, one bag of glass bottles and one bag of aluminium cans. The bins on the Recreation ground were emptied as were those in the centre of town. Sadly a number of food vendors had failed to take their food waste away. Streetscene did a marvellous job in cleaning the carnival route and removing 47 sacks of waste which included the trade waste left by the food vendors. The 20 bags of litter were left at the wardens' compound for later collection. .

North West London Clean Up
If you're reading this you're probably already aware that there is a serious litter problem and something must be done! As well as solo daily pickings while walking the dogs, I'm also organising various community clean-ups, mostly a monthly one at the Welsh Harp. I have lots of equipment which I'm very happy to lend out, as well as welcoming suggestions for other areas that need a clean-up. Please contact if you wish to get involved.
