Leaving 34 Queens Road at 2pm for an hour's local picking alongside Abel Smith School and Greencoates. All very welcome. Call 07979 692817 for more details. Enjoyed clearing the banks of the the small stream running between All Saints and St John's Hall and then up via Greencoates to the London Road.It reminded me of playing in streams as a child. Found and reported three overflowing litter bins. The form to report full bins is on the link below and I have found East Herts very helpful and responsive. https://www.eastherts.gov.uk/bins-waste-recycling/report-overflowing-or-full-litter-bins.

Rossall Beach Residents & Community Group
The original Fylde Coast beach care group, we look after the shingle beach between the Five Bar Gate and The Venue at Cleveleys. Our core activities are a four weekly community beach clean and a monthly meeting - and throughout the year we do lots of other things to help to improve this beautiful stretch of coast for the people who use it and the wildlife which lives here. Oh, and we have a lot of fun and make a lot of friends - the community which we create is every bit as important as the litter which we pick up! For the dates of forthcoming beach cleans and events please go to: - our website at www.rossallbeach.org.uk - our Facebook page at Rossall Beach Buddies - Twitter @RossBeachBudds

The scheme works by each volunteer taking ownership of their street, selection of streets or part of their street and keeping it free from litter by conducting regular litter picks. No formal litter picks are arranged allowing volunteers to litter pick as and when they can.
