This week we headed uphill into the rain to meet Iren of the Gleadless Valley Litter Pickers.

Irene met us with pickers, gloves and bags in hand and even a dustpan and brush and walked us to a particularly littered alleyway.

We got straight to work filling bags, sweeping up shards and grabbing fly tipped items.

We came across paint, cans, cigarette buts, the usual suspects. There was plenty to go out.

After collecting the bags together we left them ready for collection and said our goodbyes to Irene.
