Spring Community Litter Pick

On Sunday 19th April an enthusiastic group of 20 Chinnor volunteers carried out the 7th Community clear up on some of our most popular village footpaths and byways. Once again, we were fortunate with the weather and it was good to see our ‘regulars’ together with some new faces.

We are finding that some of the areas we regularly clear seem to be less littered now and hopefully this is showing that the hard work is paying off. However, we are still finding the problem of anti-social dog owners who either don’t clear up after their dog/s or bag their waste and throw it into the hedge or edge of the path.  I would like to point out that there are NO ‘DOG POO FAIRIES’, but it is cleared up by your neighbour!

We would like to thank everyone who turned out on Sunday and did a tremendous job and the Parish Office for supplying the litter picking kit.
