It was a lovely, sunny lunchtime in the park to help out at the monthly Ealing mile. And great to see Louise from GoodGym Islington.

20 runners took on the one mile circuit. Amazing work from everyone.

A big thank you to everyone who joined our monthly “anywhere, any time” litter pick. Whether it was a lunchtime plog, a riverside tidy-up, or a quick local wander with a picker and bag, every bit helped.

We had members out and about clearing rubbish from local paths, waterways and green spaces — including a great River Quaggy effort where three bags for life were filled. It’s a simple idea: spot some litter, pick it up, send a photo, and help keep our communities cleaner.

Sally and I celebrated Earth Day with a litterpick i • Then it was off to the theatre. The litterpicker wasn't allowed in, but the staff took good care of it. Maybe they used it for a quick bit of litter picking whilst we were in there 16:36

Why litter pick? A very short sea shanty:

There once were some runners who cared for the land, With litter pickers firmly in hand. They cleared up the street, Made the neighbourhood neat, And sailed into May with a plan!

Thanks again to everyone who took part. Let’s go again in May — same idea, anytime, anywhere, solo or with a friend.
