"Hi All
Just to clear any confusion I am now going to join the Bowes Park Community Association Litter pick up.
Please see Carolines email and contact above. This is far more organised than what I was going to do. She has a rota. So I wont see you…"

"Hi
I would like to help. I see there is a rota so please could you include me in that. Do you need an email address?
I am not sure I can do 24th as yet.

"Oh, our emails crossed. Ann, if you post when you are on the rota, and what time you expect to start and where, then others can join you when they can.
Meg
(Sorry, Can't do the 24th Aug)"
Meg Bond replied to Ann Walsh's discussion Helping the river and making this world more beautiful
"Ah, good, it seems there are 2 ways of doing it, both of them necessary. The rota is great for those who can commit themselves ahead of time, and the Turn Up If You Can brings in others, whose diary management is less predictable, like me.

There is already a Rota for the New River Path, plus the Garden and Gym, that is run by the BPCA, and we have a rota of volunteers who do it once or twice a week. We have been doing this for some years now. We clear the…"

"Great idea, Ann. Thanks for doing this on your own so far. I'm around on and off in the next few months but if you suggest a regular time or list the particular times you'll be doing it. I'll turn up when I can.
Regards
Meg"

Hi AllAnyone on Marlborough Road interested in a quick litter pick up(taking 20 mins of time) once or twice a week...along the New River at back of Marlborough Road. I use marigolds and a bin bag. The issue comes with a bin bag full of stuff and nowhere to put it. Sometimes I take it home. If anyone has any contacts as to where we can put rubbish great. If not would you like to help the river not get polluted. It doesnt take long. Sure would be more fun with someone else.We need to work…See More

The training is to enable one to be qualified as a blue badge waterways organiser.The dates have been moved to 21 Sept and 28 Sept. I am devastated as both of us are committed to our annual retreat which…See More
