St Andrew’s School Big Litter Pick

15 Blundell's Avenue,Tiverton ,EX16 4DL

03 Feb 2012

00:00

TVLP members are going to give support to the school in holding their first LP in Cullompton, to give the St Andrew’s Estate a Spring-clean feel. St Andrew’s School Council decided to demonstrate that they are good citizens of their local community. On Friday 3rd February, they cleared the hedgerows and shrubberies of winter litter, in order to give plants and animals a good start to Spring, and to give the St Andrew’s Estate a Spring-clean feel. 30 children of all ages represented the school, supported by some of the Tiverton Volunteer Litter Pickers. Conditions on the day were ideal – cold and dry, and within an hour, eight bags of litter had been gathered. The children learned a valuable lesson about the range of materials that do not decompose and those that pose a potential danger to wildlife and to children playing outside. .

Keeping Rothwell Clean & Green
Spurred on by the grass verges and parks around our lovely town regularly covered with litter, I decided to do litter picking walks in my free time. I have now formed this group, which is also on Facebook, to encourage others to help. I love where I live and aim to make others proud of their locality, so they think twice before chucking their rubbish. Don’t chuck it, bin it.
