2 GoodGymers plus 2 apprentice GoodGymers removed 4 big bags of contaminates from the waterway surroundings in Little Venice

Starting off at the Canal & River Trust HQ we power walked and talked our way first East then out West to the edge of the borough. Picking up everything from Vapes to takeaway boxes and plenty of cigarette butts.

Filling up the bags fast we cleared a load of potential canal contaminates and a few that were already in the water, to help to keep the ecosystem healthy and thriving!

Just over an hour of power stepping and rubbish picking we emptied the bags and went along after a productive session!
