Report written by Rachel (she/her)
Having had my attention drawn to a nearby grot spot in Woodseats by a member of Sheffield Litter Pickers, I gathered a bunch of Goodgymmers for a lunchtime pick in the winter sunshine. Welcome in particular to new member Becky for her first in person mission on her travels from Nottingham.
We filled several bags in about 45 minutes, whilst Michelle did a bit of community engagement talking to someone whose fence backed onto a particularly bad area of flytipping. She also enthusiastically attempted to repair an area of broken fence to deter further tipping. All in all, lots achieved in a short time, plus fresh air and exercise, and a cheeky lunch out nearby in good company!
Sheffield Litter Pickers is a volunteer collective, made up of groups and individuals from all over Sheffield who are committed to keeping their communities clean. If you would like to join them, or want more information, find their page on Facebook

Great report Rachel and thanks for setting up - glad I discovered a new little patch of woodland trail too, which should be nicer now we've removed the litter!
