Blown along by 40 mph winds, we worked with the Friends of East Brighton Park and the Tidy Up Team to fill 40 bags with litter. We foraged like Wombles in the wooded bits of the park gathering rubbish, much of which had clearly been there so long it was pickled. We found old socks, lighters, vapes, inhalers, coloured plastic beads, an icing set and glasses as well as the usual bottles, cans, sweet and fast food wrappers. We treated ourselves to tea, cake and Marilyn’s wonderful pea and potato samosa’s from East Brighton Cafe afterwards.
