In 2024, Keep Britain Tidy celebrates its landmark 70th year of protecting the environment. In support of this campaign, PAWARA proudly held a recent group litter pick on Sunday 3rd March from 8.30 am – 9.30 am. On the morning, we welcomed 5 keen, new volunteers to make up a total of 11 community members.
The total number of sacks collected was 21, along with part of a car bumper. Although it was a one hour session, several of the volunteers commented that they could have continued to pick, due to the sheer amount of litter around.
Thank you to all the community members who collect litter in their own time. PAWARA likes to stay updated about any litter picked in the area – please contact [email protected] if you would like to share your effort!
We are always on the lookout for more volunteers to join our friendly community and we would love to hear from you if you’d like to join the next group litter pick in early summer; the date for this will be shared on the PAWARA website and Facebook page, nearer the time. Alternatively, you can add your email to the mailing list be contacting [email protected].
