Great British Spring Clean

Grebes Rest, Brimbelow Road,Hoveton,Hoveton/Wroxham,NR12 8UJ

03 Mar 2018

00:00

We aim to clear the verges of rubbish from St Johns Church to Letheringtons Lane Horning. Due to the snowy weather we had to postpone a week but managed to get out today 10th March 2018. We were heavily over optimistic on how far we would get. We managed just a ¼ mile stretch of the A1062 just one side. Our haul was 4 bags of rubbish and 3 bags of cans and bottles, plus some car parts, a traffic cone and a plastic drum. Much more work needed to clear this stretch of roadway..

Village Action Litter Busters
We are part of the Frampton Cotterell and Coalpit Heath Village Action initiative. We aim to co-ordinate the efforts of local people in promoting awareness of the problem of litter; improving attitudes; and taking part in monthly organised litter picking, with the aim of keeping our villages pleasant and pretty. We know that many residents look after the roadsides and paths adjacent to their own homes and wish to encourage this. Some of our members carry chalk to mark dog fouling on pavements, to help people avoid stepping in it and to tell irresponsible dog owners that they should be clearing up after their pet. Litter picking can be very rewarding, and is an opportunity to get out and make new contacts in the village. Please get in touch if you can help in any way, however small. Please email us if there is any particular area in the village over which you have concerns about litter. In 2012 Nisa - Village Roots in Woodend Road gave us some funds and we have bought some hi-viz vests with 'Volunteer - Village Action Litter Busters' printed on them. We are grateful for their continuing support. South Glos Council support us with sacks, picker sticks and bag hoops. See Upcoming Events for dates and meeting points for monthly litter picks. Please see our gallery below for some pictures of our members, including two younger litter busters!

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.
