Just a small crew of litterpickers this month on Dallow Downs, but a powerful bunch we were as the four of us tackled a new area for a change at the bottom of the hill.

First task was a clean-up around the playground at the bottom the of the hill, where half-term playtimes in the park had amassed a large amount of litter and the bins overflowed.

Second task was to head up the steepest hill and clear the litter from a small wooded area with the help of a handy extra-long litterpicker to get into the dense undergrowth.
