Finnuala, Katie L, Dave and I tackled the litter around the edges of the small lake near the Hilsea Lido.

Dave clambered down the grass banks to reach litter in the water, and we managed to remove some plastic from the swans' nesting corner, until one of the adult swans gave us some warning hisses.

A large sack of litter was collected, including, of course, the obligatory item of clothing!

I love to combine keeping active, helping my local community, protecting the environment and having fun with others doing the same.
