Borgue Litter Picking – 1st September
As the majority of the grass verges have been cut recently we are planning on having a Litter Picking Day on Sunday 1st September 2024 between 1pm to 3pm, meeting at the Borgue Hall at 1pm to collect the hi vis, gloves, pickers and green bags along with the new’ish handihoops. All welcome. If anyone beforehand is interested in covering a specific area/road then contact me at the number below and I’ll make sure there are no doublers. If you’re not fussed where you go then that would be fine as well, just turn up and we’ll find a ‘gap’ for you!! The Council will collect the green bags from the Borgue cemetery bin store but if your bag is too heavy to carry it back to the Borgue cemetery then just leave it at the roadside letting us know of its exact location (‘what3words’ App is quite handy but no probs if you haven’t got it) and we’ll organise a pick up. Please let anyone who wants to come along to ‘pick’ know that they are most welcome. The more the merrier. And if they want to join the WhatsApp group then just give them my number – 07455 168282. Many Thanks. All the best, Annemarie
