Todwick Litter Sweep

10.00 am
Todwick News

Following on from the superb effort in March it is intended to repeat the project on Saturday, 26 May 2012, starting at 10 am. This will ensure that our village looks at its best for the Jubilee Celebrations.

All that is asked is for villagers to donate 1 hour of their time to pick up litter. You may have noticed, over recent weeks, that some people have already committed to certain area and are regularly clearing them. On behalf of the whole village a very big thank you is sent to them.

Bags, gloves and rakes will be provided, so please join us, we will gather outside the newsagents at 10 am.
