The Litter Pick

Saturday morning of the 25th April 2009 saw eleven dedicated litter pickers descend on parts of Fairford. Armed with gloves and black dustbin liners for rubbish and white ones for recyclable plastic, cans and glass, FES volunteers tackled Park Street, Leafield Road, West End Gardens, The Croft, Back Lane, Gas Lane, Waterloo Lane and the Walnut Tree Field.

Special thanks go to Pete and Ann who bravely extracted rubbish from the smelly ditches in Lovers Walk.

The rubbish included the usual takeaway containers, sweet wrappers, plastic drink bottles, cans and even a discarded turntable.

Bags full of litter. The result of a few hours work.
