Ok so as happens sometimes, things change. Our task tonight had to change and so we brought forward our Everyday Plastic event to tonight and sadly there was no sh#t to shovel (but there will always be more sh#t guys don't worry).

First up we were delighted to have Marcio join us for his first Group Run - thanks for joining us Marcio!!

The group gathered at Papa's, now with the broken door thankfully repaired, and we were set to head out for a quick 2km loop while AA Yianny headed to pick up black bags for the task. Tilly, Marcio, Michael and Becky grabbed a litter picker each and the group set off.

On our return the task was simple collect as much recyclable plastic as possible and deposit into the green recycling bins - simples. We were supporting the campaign to tackle the effects of the plastic problem that are felt across our society. For more information you can check them out here: https://www.everydayplastic.org/everyday-plastic

By the end of the session we had cleared two large bin bags of plastic waste ready for recycling - job done.

Thanks to all and see you next time!
