Offshoot from the Lancaster Road to Gordon Hill Station group. Meet at corner of Shooters Road 9.30 Sunday on monthly dates published on social media and our WhatsApp group.

I started litter picking after a memorial litter pick for my step mother in law in Halesworth, which was great fun!

Upper Lavender Hill litter pick this morning - Many thanks to Chris, Bobbie, Gordana, Jasper and new member Kay. Our litter pick this morning gathered 9 green bags, large chunk plastic car bodywork, 2 old gardening devices and a length of metal tubing. The field at the top of Shooters Road increasingly used as a car park - ?workmen from Chase Farm building site +/- parents collecting their children, and displaced from the dangerous congestion in Hunters Way. The resulting litter in the field is the worst ever, and included an identifiable document which is being reported.

Many thanks to the litter picking stars who came this morning - Anil, Gordana, Jasper, Bobbie and myself. We collected 8 green bags, a dumped plastic Wendy house, outer rim of a large tyre, and assorted black plastic, wood, and metal pieces. Gordana has taken a supply of green bags for litter within the Chaselands allotment area, where it gets blown in, and these can be added to our future collections

4 stalwarts braved the wet weather - bravo to Chris, Anil and Bobbie! Bramble clearing on the border of the Shooters Road field had revealed a huge amount of accumulated litter, most of which we cleared. Only 2 large nitrous oxide cylinders, but more spotted in another area of brambles, which were inaccessible in the rain. It was our 2 year anniversary as well - and not missed a single monthly session in that time - well done team! 👏❤️

Thanks to our regulars Chris, Anil, Bobbie, Jasper (on his birthday!), and a special appearance from Christy. We collected 9 bags, part of a car bumper, an old road closure sign and a metal mop handle. As always the area at the top of Shooters Road where the car park for Chase Farm Silver Birches is situated was a hot spot. Well done Team! 👏

The Team collected 9 green bags and 4 nitrous oxide cylinders, as well as taking away dumped cardboard packaging left at our collection point by kind local donors. Luckily they left their address labels on the packaging , so we will be able to thank them properly 🙄 there was also concrete and bricks fly tipped there - hopefully Street Cleansing will deal with it too 🤞 Big Thanks to Anil, Bobbie and Gordana today 👏👏
