Issued by the Wear Rivers Trust
Saturday 14th January saw our first volunteer activity of 2012, and what an impressing turn out we had! 24 volunteers/residents turned up to help clear their section of stream.
In a combined effort with the Rainton Green Group and Durham Wildlife Trust we managed to pick up over 50 sacks of rubbish - and that doesn't count items too big to put in sacks!
We'd also like to thank Sunderland City Council for supplying the litter pickers, tabbards and rubbish sacks and coming to remove all the rubbish during the day.
