May Litterpick Hassocks

2 Dale Terrace,Hassocks,BN6 8LN

15 May 2009

23:00

Meet at 10AM We will be picking litter in the Hassocks town centre. Both roads and pathways. The streets are quite clean due to the efforts of the parish and Mid Sussex councils. Please bring: Picture ID Strong Boots Gloves Hat Long Trousers or take the consequences if you are in shorts! Water bottle - complete with water Snacks We will aim to be out for 2-3 hours but if you can only manage 30 minutes, that's ok You will be provided with hi-viz vests, litterpickers, and bags Meet at Hassocks station - East side in the front of the Hassocks pub. 10AM We will finish with refreshments somewhere. Six community minded spirits met near the station and picked throughout the town centre. A lot of litter was recovered from the station areas as well as roadsides near the main (Keymer) Road. Overall we were pleasantly surprised by how clean Hassocks is. Well done Mid Sussex Council! Nevertheless we accumulated 5 bin bags of rubbish.

If society had given up fast food and smoking we would only have had one small bag. Most surprising finds of the day: A Ten Pound note A full Ladies handbag containing purse, passport, mobile etc. On returning it to the (hungover) owner barely a murmur of thanks was received!! The above were not connected!! .

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.
