Last Tuesday afternoon, a small, but enthusiastic group of members met to take part in the Great British Spring Clean and spent an hour and a half litter-picking.
In addition to the usual haul of cans, plastic bottles, sandwich wrappers, crisp packets and the like, they collected:
- three stainless steel ‘Thermos-type’ flasks;
- a car exhaust silencer;
- 36 glass bottles (35 of which were alcohol);
- a vehicle windscreen surround;
- a large piece of laminate flooring;
- a 10 litre white plastic container;
- two dozen Helium cartridges;
- a caravan jack and a mug.
Unfortunately the rain on day two of the litter pick forced the team to abandon their efforts for the day, but they hope to continue with regular litter picks.
