litter

[Christina Brown]

Banchory is planing to take part in Beautiful Scotland's National Spring Clean of our park and other areas around town on Sunday, April 25.  We are getting indications that we will have good support from all ages.  Are other groups planning to take part?

Keep Britain Tidy is also organising a St George’s Day tidy up on
Friday 23rd April (I suppose this is for the English!) - see
http://www.thebigtidyup.org/news_view.aspx?id=153. Unfortunately river
tides make this a bad day to organise one of our Kingston riverside
tidy ups, and Fridays are not the best days anyway to mobilise
volunteers, so we will have to do one another time. It's a good
opportunity to highlight the contribution of plastic bags to local
litter - our local amenity group collected over 50 plastic bags in
various states of deterioration in last year's litterpick on a short
stretch of riverbank - and whenever we do local litter picks we do a
press release about what we find (in 2008 it included 63 empty vodka
bottles!) as well as recycling as much as we can.

Hi Everyone,

Just to let you know that Comp Bio Products are supporting 'The Big
Tidy Up' by donating free compostable liners to anyone taking part in
the big tidy up. All we ask is that the postage is paid for. The
liners are 35 litre measuring 600 x 740mm.

Regards
Jon
