Littler Pick

Our biannual Litter Pick will take place on Sunday 14 April 2024 from 2.00pm to 4.00pm. We meet in the station car park, on the Randalls Road side. Caroline’s car will be by the hedge, together with a grey picnic table.

Volunteers are asked to arrive anytime within those hours and can come either with a bag of rubbish picked up earlier or, leave the car and go to a pre-determined spot on foot.

When choosing a destination, don’t forget the town centre itself. Many of the alley ways are recipients of all kinds of rubbish and by April it is possible that the new planters too will have been mistaken for litter bins! We are hoping that a cup of tea and/or a biscuit will be available during the two hours.

It does this by providing a platform on which residents can express their views on issues affecting them, and by promoting activities that enhance community well-being.
