We will be meeting at the gravel car park by the Lock Keeper pub, Keynsham Road between 11am and 1pm to collect as much rubbish from the side of the river as possible - please come and help if you can. B&NES council are lending us some equipment, but do bring your own gloves, litter grabber, bags if you have them.

Sandbach Clean Team
The group now has over 100 members. It organises monthly litter picks, and members also litter pick in their own local areas.

An important part of our work is with young people. We have met with Junior schools, Brownies and Cubs, and talked about the reduction of litter and recycling.

We liaise with other environmental groups in the area, particularly those with similar aims to ours and we work closely with the local Borough Council.

We have a website:- www.sandbach-cleanteam.co.uk
