Little Melton Parish Council

Litter Picking

On the Saturdays in March and October when the clocks change  (the last weekend where BOTH Saturday and Sunday fall within the month) a group of volunteers assemble at the Village Shop at 09:30 and spend about an hour picking up litter from around the village.   Please contact the Chair if you would like to help but can't meet at that time. You can help at any time over the weekend so long as the litter is ready for collection on the Monday.   Most of the litter is thrown from passing cars,  the top of Green Lane is usually worst.   It is generally accepted that people are less likely to drop litter if a place looks well cared for - so it is important to keep on top of the problem.

The Parish Council provides bags, reflective waistcoats and litter pickers.   Please come along and help - wear gloves and stout footwear.
