The Coleorton Parish Litter Pick

2013 Litter Pick took place on Saturday 20th April

A total of about 40 people took part and we covered most of The Moorlands, Lower Moor Road and Peggs Green Rec, together with some of the roads immediately off these. It’s a shame we don’t have to the means to weigh the bags of rubbish we collected which looked pretty impressive stacked up awaiting collection.

We were particularly pleased to see several children taking part, PCSO Tim Hulse who stayed for the whole morning and four young members of staff from McDonald’s who helped at Beaumont Green. We are also grateful to McDonald’s for the meal vouchers for the children and also to NWLDC for the loan of the equipment.

Thank you to all volunteers who helped to keep Coleorton looking beautiful.
