World Cleanup Day 2020 - Great British Spring/September Clean - Bricket Wood

2 Aspen Close,Bricket Wood,St. Albans,AL2 3UL

18 Sep 2020

23:00

Millions of people around the World will try to make the place a better place to work and live. This event is now combined with the Great British Spring Clean which should have taken place earlier in the year. Map of events: https://www.theskillmill.org/worldcleanupdaymap With COVID-19 a very real concern, our approach to litter picking has had to adapt; we can’t meet as a large group for the time being but we can still litter pick as a household or with a group of up to six people as long social distancing rules are observed. You can contact us at park_street_pickers@yahoo.co.uk if you’d like to receive our COVID-19 Safety Guidance document or if you'd like to borrow some picking equipment such as pickers, gloves, hoops or bags. Please remember to sanitise thoroughly before and after any picking activity.

If do some ‘Lone Ranger’ picking or picking as a small group and you’d like to let us know the details that would be great; if you have any pictures that you’d like to see included in our gallery that would be awesome too. #LitterHeroes, divided but united for a cleaner world! #trashtag #detrashed Our most successful day ever! The Parish Pickers turned out in force and collected 100 bags of litter from Bricket Wood, Park St, How Wood and Chiswell Green a truly amazing amout of litter!.

Sopwell Litter Pickers
Hi, I'm Holly and I'm starting out litter picking to help make the area I live in cleaner and more attractive. I walk to work some days and I always marvel at how much rubbish there is, especially after bin collection days and it stays on the streets for weeks, so I wanted to do something about it! Alone but hopefully not for long, I have started picking litter in my area to make it a cleaner and more enjoyable place for everyone. I hope as I get more experience at this I can rally together the troops to start a regular litter picking group to help out and clean up Sopwell! If you'd be interested in joining me, you can send me an email to meet up and arrange a litter picking date. Tel. 07857 944 443 Email. Cleanupsopwell@outlook.com
