We had 5 amazing GoodGymers come along this morning for the weekly Mill Hill litter pick with the Acton Litter Collective. With the weather improving, Madiha was able to cycle over to Acton too and it was great to see her again.

As we were in greater numbers than expected, the organiser, Elisabeth, had to go and find more equipment. Once we had our litter pickers and waste bags in hand, we headed off to find what the streets of Acton had to offer this morning.

Normally we find something unusual on the otherwise respectable streets around Mill Hill and today was no different. Kash and Jenni paired up to find some still packaged broccoli that was past its best and a marijuana grinder (or so we're told). Sevan and Chikako covered a different set of streets whose litter was no less odd, including a tyre and a laminated card containing the photo of a deity.

With the other volunteers we collected a total of 12 bags of litter, leaving Acton's streets a bit cleaner and more enjoyable for the residents.

Preserve and protect the environment, conserve Mill Hill Park buildings for their architectural and historical interest

The Mill Hill Park Residents’ Association was founded in 2004 with the aim of stopping environmental and architectural degradation in the Mill Hill Park Conservation Area. Much of its work has focused on enhancing the green spaces in Mill Hill Park and the surrounding area. Examples include distributing saplings provided by the Woodland Trust to local residents; redesigning and replanting the Crown Street Pocket Garden, and planting a community orchard in Heathfield Gardens.
