Month: October 2025

Wellingborough Eco Group & Wellie Wombles

Get your fancy dress ready, this Month’s Two Hour Tidy Up is a Halloween special!

It takes place at Twilight on the last day before the clocks go backwards! Join us on Saturday (25th October) at London Road Cemetery and along The Walks! We will be setting up our Recycling Station at the entrance to cemetery on Castle Road and The Walks (map below) from 3:30, for a spooky litter pick between 4:00 and 6:00.

Join us for our monthly Two Hour Tidy Up!

This location has been chosen because we have had reports that the cemetery and The Walks are heavily littered. We tidied this area for Halloween last October, but unfortunately due to some messy people there’s a lot to do. It could be cold, so free refreshments including tea and coffee will be available.

Madame Cholet herself, Georgina, will be making the soup for all Wombles at ECO HUB Swanspool Pavilion, just over the road, which will be open from 5:30 until 7:00, for some free homemade soup, and for tea and coffee too. Come and have a treat after our Halloween Tidy Up.

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 and do dress up if you can. Join in, bring your friends and family, ALL WELCOME!

Get ready for a spooktacular afternoon of fun and laughter at our Eco Club for Kids Children’s Halloween Party!

👻 Come along in your favourite costume and enjoy games where you can win a trick or a treat, plus crafts and activities — all completely free!

🎃 Plus there will be children’s lunch bags for just £3, and adult refreshments available to purchase.
