Since the last news update, we have:
a) Continued with our twice monthly litter picks :
5 volunteers met at Lacey Green Park on Wednesday 02-APR-25. We covered the surrounding area and collected 6 bags of rubbish.
7 volunteers met at the Parish Hall on Saturday 05-APR-25. We covered the surrounding area and the town centre.
b) Continued with our solo picks – thanks to Ian for this photo :
c) Received an email from Howden Insurance. The contractors working on their premises have, as part of the contract, committed to “One Good Thing” which is where they help with a local charity or organisation of the local branch being worked on. This is usually in the form of a donation. Howdens have chosen the Wilmslow Clean Team – which is great news for us.
d) Heard from Mike regarding the ability for local organisations to apply for un-paid help from local offenders. Litter picking is one of the example activities. Chris will investigate this opportunity in due course :
