We've got the Litter-picking Bug!
3 GoodGymers made their way to help their local community in Windsor and Maidenhead.
- Tuesday, 12th of April 2022
- Led by Windsor and Maidenhead runner
With a fence-painting session postponed due to a lack of paint, Anita, Rachel and Sheila decided to do a litter-pick instead. We ignored the weather forecast, and were treated to a beautiful spring morning with not a drop of rain. This was Rachel's first litter-picking session, but she was soon picking up like a pro. We started in Oaken Grove Park, clearing any litter from the playground area and the Nicholas Winton Garden, and a spot of over-enthusiasm saw us almost dispose of a water-bottle temporarily left by a displeased runner. We moved on to some surrounding streets and before long we had each collected a bag full of litter. It was great to be thanked by several appreciative members of the public.
