Harvester Team litter Pick

19 fabulous members turned out on Saturday.
  A big thank you to everyone! 💕😇

A few weeks ago there was a meeting of Cheshire East clean teams at the Ansa waste transfer site. It was a chance to bounce a few ideas around. We heard that Crewe clean team have been recycling on their litter picks for a while now so we thought we would give it a go.

 It was very successful!

Recyclable items need to go in clear bags provided to us by Ansa so that they can go in the correct area when taken to the waste transfer site on Cledford Lane. They then get taken to the materials recovery facility at UPM Shotton on Deeside to be sorted.

https://www.upm.com/Responsibility/Product-stewardship/Recycling-recyclability/shotton-mrf/Pages/default.aspx

We collected 17 green bags of mixed waste and 9 bags of recyclable materials. Not bad for our first attempt! 💚💪😆

We would also like to thank all at The Harvester for a warm welcome and hot drinks 💖

***Latest News***

Summer is here and we are having an amazing Clean Team year so far 😍

Since the start of the year we've been doing our usual twice monthly group litter picks and welcoming lots of new members to the team....fantastic! 💚

Our star planters Darren Ketley and Vicky Perez have been working wonders with Katy's Wall. We were kindly donated some plants by Arley Hall too 👍 Darren is also doing a brilliant job keeping Southway looking clean and tidy 😊

There have also been lots of fund raising achievements too!

We would like to say a big thanks to all the Middlewich Labour group for the very generous donation raised at their Rock The Vote music event back in April!

They presented the money to us during our litter pick meeting at Starbucks a few weeks ago.

We've had money raised by the Run Middlewich group/sports massage and sponsorships for Hilary and Maxine for running the 5k event.

Newton Brewery also had their very own Bake off and we were the lucky charity to benefit this time....thank you to all the staff and customers involved! 💚

We have 4 more group litter picks before the summer break and of course FAB festival to look forward too! All members are encouraged to wear their high vis clean team vests and muck in keeping the event litter free as and when they feel they can help 👍😎
