Over the past couple of years Mike and I have taken a bag with us when walking to pick up the odd bit of litter! This has turned into a regular litter pick. Mike now takes the bag when he runs most morning (when he is here) round the elm, Or round the Colony. Every day there are bottles cans and the dreaded McDonald’s / fast food packaging. The very next day after the big litter pick there was more rubbish!!

Would it be possible to ask people to take their rubbish and put it in a bin? Maybe we need signs reminding people that visit /pass through our village that we do not want their litter?
