Who this task will support
Merton Council
Merton London Borough Council, which styles itself Merton Council, is the local authority for the London Borough of Merton in Greater London, England. It is a London borough council, one of 32 in London. The council is based at Merton Civic Centre in Morden. Merton Council's current council plan for 2023-26 is 'Building a Better Merton Together'. The plan aims to rebuild pride in Merton through cleaner streets, more affordable housing, improved town centers, and more opportunities to be involved in sports

Take a walk (or run) on New Years Day solo or with friends or family and get outside, get some fresh air, and give your local area a spruce up. It's always surprising how much litter there is scattered around and the quantity that can be collected in a short amount of time!

You can complete this task in your own time and in a place of your choice anytime on 1st January. Please send any photos in the WhatsApp group (or directly to me) and I'll include in the report!

How are you getting there?
