About 130 of Hitchin’s volunteer litter pickers took part in our Big Spring Clean on Sunday 24th March. This comprised two Guide groups, Bubbleworks Community runners and Hitchin Tennis Club as well as family groups and individuals. Chris Hall, a former Hitchin resident who first helped a year ago, recently moved to Wisbech but nevertheless travelled down to help, and must surely set the record for the furthest distance travelled to take part in our event.
Thanks to Hitchin Bid for the use of their litter pickers, and the Town Centre Rangers who help us to distribute them. North Hertfordshire Council provided advice, and of course, their contractors dealt with the 70+ bags that the volunteers collected.
For your diary – the Autumn Grand Litter Pick is on Sunday October 20th. Contact Bill Sellicks on litter@hitchinforum.org.uk if you want to join in.
