We had good fun this morning, joining the Community Spotlight team for the second of their monthly litter picks at Hilsea Station.

We had to use our contortion skills to manipulate litter between the railings through to our rubbish bags. Jen enjoyed a small climbing escapade to retrieve a giant plastic screen. With the assistance of Dave, a rake was also retrieved. This was then donated to one of the other volunteers who had just the other day been thinking he needed a new rake!

We were also able to advice a young man which train he needed to get - our South Western Railways hi-vis had led to him thinking we were station staff.

We were very lucky - the sun shone and the showers held off for our lunchtime litterpick!

In half an hour we made a big difference to this little empty space and filled up 2 big bags.
