SPRING 14 Litter Picking 08

Friends of Eastfield Park

17 Debdale Road ,Northampton,NN3 2TR

29 May 2014

23:00

09.30 - 11.00 am. Meet at the Greenfield Avenue entrance to Eastfield Park. Are we winning? Two volunteers (Vic and Ted) walked the entire length of Apple Tree Walk and only managed to pick up just over one sack of rubbish between them! Of course, it's harder to see the litter now that the area is covered with fresh vegetation but there did seem to be less rubbish than usual. This was the last short litter picking session in the present series. Our attention will now turn mainly to other activities such as conservation work and gardening until the autumn..

Whitehead Wombles
Whitehead Wombles are a small group of people from the town of Whitehead who got fed up looking at the amount of litter on our streets and hedgerows and decided to do something about it. We only have a few members but we are committed to keeping the level of litter in the town to a minimum and hope that people will see us and think twice about dropping their litter. We are supplied with bags, gloves and pickers by our local council and last Oct we won an award for our coastal care work. Our aim is to educate people in the detrimental effects of littering and to work with as many groups within the town to co ordinate our efforts. We had a community clean up on Sunday 18th Sept 2011as part of the national Beach watch Weekend and received support of local groups and churches so for one day at least we had a litter free town. We lifted over 30 bags and had forty people of all ages turn out to help. This proved so successful that many of those involved wanted to run it on a quarterly basis so we'll see what we can do If anyone wants to set up a group and needs advice then contact us or follow our progress at the Brighter Whitehead site.

The Friends of Mile End Park
We litter pick Mile End Park, Tower Hamlets on the second Sunday of every month. We meet at 10am by the Art Pavilion which is by Clinton Road and just off Grove Road. We generally do a couple of hours. We can\'t do the whole park in two hours so we generally head north one month and south the next. Litter pickers, gloves, plastic litter bags, and hoops for the bags are supplied. We collapse in a heap at the end in The Coffee Room afterwards and reward ourselves with cake and coffee, and a good old chit chat.
