Miriam kindly organised a litter pick on our adopted section of the canal this morning, and I joined her along with my daughter. It was a really nice morning and was good to see our section of the canal already relatively clean and well kept, which shows the good work we've been doing alongside the Canal and River Trust recently. We had some space left in the bags after leaving the canal so continued picking litter on the way to Albion Street where we left the bags to be collected.

Once we were finished, Miriam left us and we joined another litter pick (hence today's pun) in Winson Green, with Taz of the Active Wellbeing Society and Soho First Community Development Trust who did a great job in cleaning up the area around the Bishop Latimer Church.

We'll be back on the canal on 10th July when we'll be joined by Beth from the Canal and River Trust for some litter picking and weeding.
