28 bags of rubbish collected by nearly 40 volunteers on Saturday 23rd April, cleaning up the town’s streets and local beauty spots.

Wymondham’s Big Spring Litter Pick was part of the South Norfolk Big Litter Pick 2022 and it was great to see children accompanying their parents and grandparents, helping the environment and playing a vital part in the community.

Although numbers were down compared to pre-Covid litter picks, a real difference was made to the appearance of the town.

All the usual suspects were present, plastic bottles, cigarette ends and tin cans and there was a bit of a run on car parts, wheels and assorted trims.

The simple action of picking up litter really does make a positive difference to our community, so a very big ‘thank you’ to all the volunteers to Morrisons who supplied tea, coffee and biscuits and the Baptist Church for hosting us.

Another litter pick will be held in the Autumn, date to be announced, so keep an eye on our website for further details.
