Wife, mum, nan & voluntary litter-picker running the Keeping Rothwell Clean & Green group. Passionate about reducing waste & protecting the environment.
With half the road closed we’ve managed to #litterpick the whole length of Glendon Road this week.
Never cease to be amazed at what I find.
2 people, hour & a half’s walk netted 3 bags of litter, 3 bags of household waste, a barbecue, 4 tyres, 2 planks of wood & a wheel trim.
netted 3 bags of #litter with hubby this morning, then this afternoon took my litter picker with me on a stroll round the parks with my son & 3 grandsons.
Super proud of these mini Wombles, particularly the 4 year old who ran back & forth hunting out litter.

Just an hour out of my morning clearing #litter I spotted yesterday on a stretch of local rural road.
Made me happy to hear a cyclist shout our “look there’s a Womble” & shout thanks as he cycled past.
I’m easy pleased nowadays.
2 more bags collected & 4000steps of exercise.
@LegoLostAtSea The castles we build
Give joy for hours
Then melt into the sea
As the tide devours
No trace is left behind
Except in photo smiles
Travelling no distance
Consuming no air miles
Footprints in the sand
Fade as we depart
But the plastic left behind
Breaks the ocean's heart...
Was glad to get back from my #litterpick today & jump in the shower.
3 bags filled, 1 overflowing bin sorted and sofa seats reported to council as #flytipping.
Phew it’s too hot for me today.
Just wish people would use the bins,

While I enjoyed a cuppa with a friend my lovely hubby solo #litterpicked the A14 roundabouts & slip roads coming into town.
Shame the car tossers care more about their cars than the environment,
3 bags filled making the environment safer for all

The third and final day of North West In Bloom has now taken place in Moss Side. To the many alley greeners who have worked so hard to turn those grim passages into beautiful havens, whether just starting, or with an alley so full you can barely move in it, a huge WELL DONE!!!!!
Managing to keep on top of the #litter on our rural roads around town.
1 hour, 2 people netted 2 bags of litter, most from the roundabout & slip roads from the A14. If only they’d keep it n their vehicles & put it in a bin.
