5 of Luton Goodgyms team got stuck in at this months Litterpick at People's park. Supporting the Friends group at the park the team contributed to collecting 12 bags of rubbish and some other bits and bobs. Well done team, great effort 👌 💪 🙂 👏 👍🏻

Two of Luton Goodgym's Faithful helped out at the regular monthly litterpick at People's park. It was a fun event and we look forward to attending next month.

We had a team of eight join up with the other friends of People's Park to carry out a thorough cleanup of the park.

Weeks of nice weather had attracted lots of daytime park users who left all the usual litter scattered around the fields bushes and trees of this large site. There was also a fair bit of evidence of a night time economy, as well as the fly tipping of a few random items, this time a push chair, a freezer drawer, a walking stick and a children's ride on car thing were the main features of an impressive haul of 16 bags of rubbish!

Beautiful spring sunshine welcomed us as we gathered at the Green Flag to launch another round of the monthly People's Park litter pick.

Splitting up and roving around the park we collected all the litter dropped by recent park users enjoying the warm weather.

The trees in the orchard also got a thorough watering with those on that task getting lots of steps in by having to walk watering cans out from the nearby houses and across to field to the trees and return for refills.

When our time was up we returned to the flag with our collected bags to count them up: 14 bags in total, not bad for a morning in the sun 🌞

It was a glorious sunny morning, and just the kind of weather to get a good group of us out in People's Park for the monthly litter pick. It was great to see Yasin and Derrick, who we haven't seen for a while. MArtin managed to get in a few extra steps on the walking machine in the play park.

Between us we managed to find all the ingredients from a recent romantic evening at the park, a few spent prophylactics, a half a bottle of whisky, assorted beer cans and wine bottles and even a pair of M&S finest lacy briefs with a delightful lipstick pattern on them!

At the end of the session Rachel treated us to an Easter Egg Hunt, although we were slightly disappointed that she hadn't got dressed up as the Easter Bunny!

It was a beautiful warm sunny winters morning in People's Park for the monthly cleanup effort by the community to keep the area clean and tidy, free from litter.

All the usual littered items like cans, bottles and wrappers were collected by the team but as usual there's always one or two completely random items. This time Martin found a whole bunch of helmets discarded in the trees!

Among the wider group of volunteers we also met Emi, who was convinced to sign up for GoodGym and get the first deed in the bag as well as all the litter! Welcome Emi!
