Tonight's task was a litter pick on our adopted part of the canal. Armed with litter pickers and bags we headed to the canal.

There was certainly plenty to do! We easily filled our bags and could have filled even more! But we certainly made a difference :) Once our bags were bulging we walked up to Aston Lock, to drop them off. On the way we passed a couple of 'hissy geese' looking after their new born.

Once we had dropped our bags off Miriam did the selfie job, before we headed along the canal and back through the town centre to 1000 Trades. Once back we all enjoyed a well earned drink :)
