Two GoodGymers ran to Park Hill on a crisp and sunny Saturday morning, to meet the Park Hill Residents’ Association (PHRA) and the Green Group on their monthly litter pick.

Together with other volunteers, Rachel and I worked our way around the site, receiving an invitation for hot drinks as a thank you from a local restaurant en route. Amongst other things, we collected 2 pairs of trousers, 1 trainer, 1 work boot and various other clothes.

We are filled with such clothing for all that rubbish - truly apparel-ed! Fortunately tackling litter is our strong suit, helping out across Sheffield is in our jeans and we are prepared to sock-rifice a few hours on the weekend to pur-shoe our dreams of a litter-free Sheffield.

After two hours, I counted about a dozen bags of rubbish. We finished the morning with a well-earned break in a nearby cafe :)
