Thanks to Ashley, Pete and Tracey for being shining stars at this week's litter picking session.

Ashley kicked things off finding a discarded mask on the floor of the car park and we went on to find a dummy, a false nail and a mitten - which we left in case the owner came back to find it and give it a good wash before using (the mitten, not the nail.... )

It was good to see (for as long as we could in daylight) Markeaton Park looking fairly litter-free and being enjoyed by runners, cyclists and scooter owners. We soon had our head torches on to explore the play area and grass away from paths.

The team had a chat about upcoming events they're preparing for including the Monsal Trail half and the Derby 10 mile.

Thanks everyone for coming - hope to see you again soon.

On the way home I picked up loads more including another 2 masks and a bottle of Smirnoff Ice.

I'm still waiting for the central team to help me with that! I can help with document checks but not my own :/ Thank you for continuing to do good deeds after the session and carry on litter picking!
