23:00

We're going back to finish what we started on 5th March when horrendous rain stopped play. From Holbeck Manor to High Toynton and also Winceby area. Meet at Cross Keys, Salmonby at 10.15 unless weather is awful. Drivers will be needed. Most of us have our own kits, bags will be provided. Wow, 12 people turned up, 4 more people joined us. We collected nearly 40 bags and assorted tyres, plastic posts & metal ware. They're all asking "When is the next pick" Brilliant!! We will conquer the "Tossers"!! The number of litter pick volunteers has now swelled to 23. If more communities got involved just think what we'd achieve! .

Saltwells Clean & Green
We aim to clean up and maintain an urban nature reserve and ancient woodland right in the heart of a built up industrial area. Saltwells Woods and nature reserve is well used and well loved, and was recently saved from having a housing estate built on it, but sadly also neglected. With a renewed vigour now the woods are saved, we vow to make the area as CLEAN & GREEN as we possibly can.

The Green Army
The Green Army has been founded to tackle litter along rural routes around the villages of Harrold, Odell and Carlton in Bedfordshire. Roadside verges leading in and out of these villages will be targeted in a bid to keep our surrounding countryside clean and beautiful, and to provide safe habitats for local wildlife. Any public footpaths or bridleways will also be freed of litter as the need arises. If you are a local resident interested in joining this group please get in touch!

Sabre Rail
Our groups main aim is to improve the local environment so that it looks cleaner and more presentable as the litter in the area is spoiling the look of where we live and work. We would like to bring together the working community of the business park in order to clean things up a bit by keeping the area litter free. We feel that this would be a great opportunity to meet some of our neighbours, get some gentle exercise and achieve something really valuable at the same time.
