Report written by Liv Parker-Scott
Myself and Michael met at lunch time to check on an area of canal we regularly maintain with The Canal & River Trust!
Unfortunately it was just as heavily littered as the last time we visited and within half an hour we picked up 5 full large bags of litter, mostly consisting of beer cans. And that was all from just the 100 metre stretch closest to the entrance of the canal! It's such a shame that this area is regularly abused but it felt good to do what we could and hopefully make just a small dent in the big problem.
How CAN we fix the issue?
An answer we don't have but we'll be reporting the findings back again in hope that something can be done!
Canals and rivers are a world away from every day. They’re free, open spaces we can all enjoy - and it’s our job at the Trust to keep them that way.
