It’s a Bank Holiday! 🎉👍 The #lakedistrict a UNESCO World Heritage Site may sadly feel the brunt of some irresponsible visitors 💔😢

Meet ‘THE BINFLUENCER’, Lakeland’s latest hero! Be kind. Care for #nature and PLEASE DON’T CAUSE HARM! 😊🙏🙏 #litter

Nature needs space too but also care and respect for a stunning part of the world.

Big thanks to the @Team_BMC volunteers and Fix the Fells volunteers who joined us for a 2-day ‘Get Stuck In’ work party on The Band, Langdale! Thanks also #BMC for the donation of gloves which were immediately put to good use!
