A fantastic day greeting us on the Avon for our monthly surface against sewage litter pick.
Mark, our fantastic host, greeted us with his 2 barrels. Welcome to Molly for her first GG good deed 👏.
We scaled the banks collecting recyclables and non recyclables. A large cabin bag was our largest find today. A great job keeping our Avon cleaner for all to enjoy🌄

The rain cleared nicely and GG was joined by 3 Surfers Against Sewage members. This time we tackled the verges on the Portway side that had accumulated a lot of litter. With great enthusiasm we filled 5 clear and 5 green bags between us and some large objects. Looking back we could see the verge back to its natural greenness glistening under the Suspension Bridge.
Thank you Surfers Against Sewage.

A warming up morning greeted 4 GGers and a lovely group of surfers against sewage. We sweeped across the Avon banks with our pickers wading through the long grass and finding loads of litter in the clear verges including a toy base ball bat to stimulate the pun. In the end we wheeled back 8 full bags of rubbish and bulky items. A big home run of rubbish saved from the Avon. Awesome 👌

A lovely morning greated the GG team with host Mark from Surfers against Sewage. We tackled a section of the high grass verges and soon we filled multiple bags. Today's star find was a one eared horse. We barrowed are goodies back to the pick up point before a final photo. Then we trotted off to the garden centre for coffee and treats. Great work everyone 👍

A beautiful day greeted us on the banks of the Avon for out monthly surfers against sewage. The grass was long but we used our pickers to wade through to discover a host of litter. So much large hard plastic was collected today. We did the 2 barrow load rubbish trek back to the drop off point and then after a final snap we were of to the Waterside cafe for some home made goodies. Did Emma buy another rose? Great work everyone it makes such a difference 👏

A strange sighting of 4 people with a large chest fridge spotted along the peel path. Not a typical story line for the GG standard but our biggest white good collected from the Avon to date as part of surfers against sewage. Awesome effort by Mark our host and the GG crew to get it all the way back to the council collection site. We could have froze at the dauting task ahead. But took a chilled approach. We also bagged loads of rubbish too. Awesome work👍
