This morning Rachel and Michelle joined the River Stewardship Company and Sheaf and Porter River Trust to clean up a littered spot on the Porter Brook. Michelle was already on her 2nd good deed of the day, having picked 8 bags of litter already in the morning and planning to go out and pick some more this evening too!

After donning waders/wellies, life jackets and gloves, we made our way over the wall and down the bank in search of grot. Several bags were filled... sadly one of them got washed away down the river! Hopefully it can be retrieved downstream at some point 🙈

With a fantastic turnout, there were many more than really needed. We picked a little around the surrounding paths and car park too. The job was done twice as fast as expected and just in time for lunch. Perfect!
