Spring is around the corner and soon the grass, spring bulbs and other eager plants will burst upwards grabbing that all important sunlight. So this is the time to get out and harvest the perennial bounty of litter!
Every year our vet practice gets involved in a litter picking session or two around the town of Whitchurch. This is the time to do it, while the offending material is visible amongst the suppressed winter vegetation. Litter annoys the vast majority of us and it's hard to get into the mindset of someone who is perfectly happy to discard their trash along some beautiful byways and paths in their own town. Rather than just get annoyed about it, good people have decided to do something about it. It's incredible at how much can be achieved by small team of well organised volunteers. There's a great sense of achievement and it turns into a nice social outing. If your local to Whitchurch why not come and join us - if not check out your local town / village's website to see if they are getting involved (if not organise a litter pick yourself - contact your local council who generally will supply equipment).

Meet: Saturday 21st March, 9.45am in Civic Centre Market Hall
