January is always a challenging month, but this January, we thought we give it some purpose and added in a rubbish/recycling collection task with a 2-1 twist!

Well done to you all for getting out their and doing your bit.

Loving the 2-1 stories.....have a read of these!

  • Harsha and James collected litter every day for the month of Jan! They made it a family affair by getting their children involved to. At the end of their collections, they recycled what they could, including setting aside beer can rings to take to Terracyle when it reopens! They even created a 21/2021 pop art display of their hoard! Check out the photos.

  • Ricky and I did a litter pick today before we ran 21km

  • Sutyee did her litter pick on the 21st of Jan covering 21 streets in Langley on her nephews 21st birthday!

  • Sandy Plogged 2.1km collecting over 21 pieces of rubbish all after a 6 hour shift at the vaccine cente!

  • Jen Collected rubbish for the first 21 minutes of her daily walk!

  • Pam Found an elf, 21 days (or so) after Christmas!. Not sure why said Elf has not gone back to Lapland!

  • Shelley and her daughter did an amazing job collecting 21 bags of rubbish

  • Jenny Our Queen of litter picks was out as much as she could in January - no doubt she's covered 21st, 21 days and over 21 bags

  • Sara Our local neighbour from Windsor and Maidenhead, found a TV and a Bike on her litter hoards, sadly she couldnt put them in the rubbish bag but did get another 21 items safely collected and disposed off.

  • Claire Also did her 2-1 litter collection.
