Our first community litter pick

 Saturday 13th May saw our first community litter pick around the outskirts of "big Tesco" in Brackley.

If you think Brackley is tidy, think again!
 
 
A MASSIVE THANK YOU to the 30 people who rocked up for Brackley Litter Wombles first litter pick.
 
73 bags filled!!
 
Hideous ditch of rubbish cleared, Tesco car park edges tidy and bushy area beside it cleared.
3 Hub cabs, cones, an exhaust, a big blanket, a shed door, a whole rotting chicken in a bag are some of the random finds we came across
.
Great work everyone!
 
The next one is on Saturday 17th June 10-12. Meet outside Sainsbury's and attacking the back of the Paisley Pear down to Sainsbury's

Needs lots of work, it's absolutely vile!   Sad thing is, there are no end of small animal runs and holes along there living amongst a thick carpet of h

  23 Wombles, 23 bags, a scooter, a plastic liquid container and a company sign. Womble wage found!   Not the haul of last month but lots of little bits collected so it looks much tidier around Sainsbury's, the back of Sainsbury's to Paisley Pear, the Medical Centre and Turweston Road.   Thank you so much to everyone that came along today. Great work Wombles!
