On a pleasant Monday evening, three GoodGym litter pickers headed out up Stepney Bank towards New Bridge Street. It's not an area we have litter picked in often and it was certainly needed. The main road into the city centre from Byker, New Bridge Street had mountains of litter, particularly around its bus stops. It's hard to understand how it ends up like this as there are numerous bins around the bus stops.

We had several people stopping to thank us and asking what GoodGym was. We did our best to explain and told people to look us up. If you were one of those people and are reading this, please sign up and come join us on a Monday night soon!
