Great job keeping our community areas clean

What a great morning working with a new Swinton community group doing a litter pick. Supported by councillors, the development officer and Highfield court helped with some refreshments. Over 50 bags of rubbish from the field and lane off park road. And this group want to do more

[Mexboro Ferry Assoc @mexferryassoc]

Welcome to the world wide litter picking community

[Pure Clean Earth @purecleanearth]

Here's a taster of what we have achieved in such a short period of time.

Total full bags of trash collected:

Barcelona: 338
Sitges: 37

Each bag between 3-4kg average

Total of just over 1 tonne.
