RESCUE in Tilehurst

This weekend being RESCUE weekend I went out to volunteer, with other Globe members and quite a few Tilehurst residents of all ages, in the annual clean up operation.

I spent two hours with two other volunteers, Pam and Jane, clearing up litter from the footpaths round the British Legion. We pulled out three large sacks of recyclables (mostly cans) and three of other rubbish. Much of the rubbish had to be pulled out from amongst the brambles and undergrowth. It was quite a struggle.

The good news is that the alleyways round by the Legion are now clear of litter for the first time since last year’s operation.

Anyway it was a job well done and there are more volunteers getting out this afternoon and tomorrow to clear up other parts of Tilehurst.
