We will be expanding our current projects and introducing lots more, all focused on improving our environment and helping local people. New projects on the way include an eco craft group, an eco kids group, veggie/vegan food events, cooking demonstrations, Energy Savers workshops, a spoken word poetry club and more of of current projects.
This month’s Two Hour Tidy Up is a Bank Holiday Weekend special!
The litter pick takes place on Saturday morning (27th August) and we are litter picking the town centre and the surrounding streets. We will set up a recycling station on The Market from 9:30 litter pick between 10am-12 midday.
This location has been chosen because we also have a stall on the Community Market (11-3). As a group we have tidied up this area before, but unfortunately due to some messy people there’s plenty to do.
To help us and keep us safe at this and future litter picks, Wellingborough Eco Group have purchased some litter pickers, hi-vis vests and safety equipment including road signs, so everything is provided but please bring your own gloves if you can.
North Northants Council will take away the litter we pick, hand sanitiser will be available. We will be joined by Wellie Wombles and many other volunteers, so do join in, bring your friends and family, ALL WELCOME!
