Thank you to volunteers from Keep Washington Tidy, Rotary members and MP Sharon Hodgson (also answering Residents questions) had a productive morning on Blackfell collecting over 17 bags of litter and numerous other items, lots of abandoned trolleys.

Washington Asda staff Carried out a litter pick at Albany park collecting nearly 30 bags of waste, some equipment supplied by Keep Washington Tidy. Great effort by Maureen and the team, thank you.
Maureen, Brian and Bernie between us have spent 15 hours over the last 2 days cleaning up Blackfell Village Centre. Pruning shrubs removing litter and dead shrubs and glass that was embodied into the soil around the MUGA and Play Park.
