Around 30 people, young and not so young, attended our first community litter pick of the year to help keep our area clean and green. We were also joined by Cllr Stacy Hart.
Also in attendance was Alan from natural Basingstoke, who brought along his nature displays to the café. He had lots of young visitors at his table, with children really enjoying learning about nature and wildlife
With Mary leading families with young children covering the playground and other areas easily accessible within the park.
Colin leading another group within the park, focusing on bushy areas difficult to access.
Sue leading a group on the usual Holly Blue route.
Andy and Nigel leading along Longwood Copse.
Row from the Hatch Warren group leading down to Sainsbury’s.
An incredible amount of rubbish was collected from all areas in a few hours of litter picking.
A special thank you to the incredible volunteer teams from Hatch Warren Nature Group and Natural Basingstoke, the Beggarwood Café our own Beggarwood Wildlife Group for organising and leading the event. Your dedication makes a real difference.
