A total of 14 bags of rubbish have been collected from our area this month by members of the group who are doing a sterling job trying to keep our environment tidy.
One ‘grot spot’ which has been identified is the bottom end of the bypass. The problem is that it doesn’t take long to fill a bag with rubbish. The bags then become rather heavy to carry to the nearest litter bin which is in a layby on the bypass. The area around the litter bin is also frequently strewn with rubbish some of which is from bags which have been ripped open probably by wildlife. Together with The Wombles who are also prolific Hucknall litter pickers our aim is to have another litter bin installed towards the lower end of the bypass.
Wish us luck with that project!
