Litter pick volunteers raring to go
An intrepid band of ten volunteers turned out in showery weather for today’s FARA litter pick, done as part of the Council-organised Spring Clean of the borough. We focused mainly on Wanstead Flats, where we found a plethora of beer cans (perhaps we should apply for sponsorship from Stella Artois next time), and lots of water/Lucozade and other drink containers on and around the football pitches, so we’ll be talking to the Epping Forest managers about that. We stopped a bit earlier than usual due to us all being a bit cold and wet, but nevertheless we managed to fill around a dozen sacks full of rubbish for the Council to collect later, and we left Wanstead Flats a prettier place for everyone to enjoy. Thanks to everyone who turned up to help, and to young Teddy and Bessie the German Shepherd for the moral support!
