Early start for CCLP village monthly pick, but that doesn’t stop our Katie #litterpickers #wombles #makingadifference
A few of the Countesthorpe Community Litter Pickers team went 'out out' this morning to tackle a historical fly-tip. An equivalent total of 21 bags to go towards South Leicestershire Litter Wombles litter pledge for @KeepBritainTidy. All reported on @CleanStreetsApp
This shockingly wet weather was never going to dampen our high spirits today - not a chance!
8 wet wombles ventured out from Countesthorpe picking litter the whole way along to Peatling Magna.
10 bags of litter collected (including recycling) @BlabyDC @CleanStreetsApp
What I thought would be a quick maintenance litter pick turned out to be quite a messy one. Dry ditches revealing lots of stuff not previously seen since it was chucked in.
6 bags, 5 of rubbish plus one of recycling @CleanStreetsApp @BlabyDC #wombles #litterpicking
After breaking the back of this arduous & busy stretch of road on our previous picks, today we finally reached the end. 5 bags of litter collected, plus a fence panel, added to our previous total of 88 bags which brings us to the grand total of 93 @CleanStreetsApp @BlabyDC
few hours of litter picking the perimeter hedges of Countesthorpe Academy playing fields again today.
10am til 12.30pm, where most litter was retrieved lying down on our fronts under the branches of the 10ft deep bushes.10 bags and a tyre @CleanStreetsApp @BlabyDC #litterpicking
CCLP going to the next level of litter picking after Jacqui spotted some bottles in the Country Park balance ponds last weekend, Woody came to the rescue with his mate's waders and extendable fishing net! 💚 @CleanStreetsApp @blabydc #litterheros #litterpicking
An expansion on our litter picking duties. Before & after #allcleannow #roadsigncleaning @CleanStreetsApp @blabydc
CCLP formed a human chain to remove this mess from its resting place today. To add to these bags of rubbish, when we arrived this morning we also found a large cannabis fly-tip on the bend.
60 bags now been reported to @CleanStreetsApp & await collection by @BlabyDC #flytip
Saturday No 5 on Foston Rd.
We are nearly upto Barley Lane...almost within spitting distance in fact.
An epic 18 bags collected today bringing our total for Foston Rd so far to 88 bags over 5 Saturdays! 🙌
This location has been the hub for our weekly@litter collections on Foston Road so we thought the sign deserved a make over #allcleannow @CleanStreetsApp @BlabyDC
Week 5 at Foston road, 70 bags so far but still plenty to go @BlabyDC @CleanStreetsApp
