A hearty gang of Good Gymer's met up with the Woolston Wombles for a litter pick in and around the bridge area in Woolston. We all set off under the Itchen Bridge armed with our litter pickers and black sacks. Wilson, Finnuala, Ellie and Stephanie were on general waste collecting followed up by Can Queen 👑 Lauren. Young April was there to make sure we spotted everything as her beady eyes and pointer made sure we did a thorough pick. Some lovely finds as usual by Wilson and Finnuala's sweet little fishy🎣made us all smile. We were also joined by a helpful passerby who stopped to roll down lots of cans and left some piles of waste. An ideal opportunity to give him some information about Good Gym and the Woolston Wombles regular picks. A great hours work and lots of cans collected for the Hampshire Ambulance as they get the proceeds from the recycled aluminium. Woolston Wombles were very happy to have us tag along so we will be back.
