Volunteers clean up in Marlborough Park

Gloomy conditions fail to dampen spirits of the Friends of the Shuttle team as another shocking amount of rubbish is removed from in and around the river.

FotS members remove rubbish from the concrete channel by Marlborough Park Avenue.

Thanks to all those who came to Marlborough Park this morning (January 14th) despite the inclement weather. To paraphrase Sesame Street, our river clean today was sponsored by the letters C and D.  It was both Cold and Damp and as well as 14 bags of rubbish and recyclables, our intrepid volunteers collected a Cone, a Cricket bat, a Christmas tree, some Decking and a Donald Duck scooter!

The 'fruits' of the clean-up effort even included a discarded Christmas tree .......
