Thames 21 PlasticBlitz clean-up in Wooburn Park. 18 September 2022

Friends of the Wye supporters helped with the Thames 21 PlasticBlitz event in Wooburn Park in conjunction with LitterBlitz and Bourne End & Cookham Rotary Club.

The group recovered in total, 16 bags of rubbish from a 250 metre stretch of the river and an additional 11 bags of rubbish in the surrounding areas. Sadly, they show all too clearly the problem of illegal fly tipping and littering in and around urban areas of the river.

Wooburn and Bourne End Parish Council collected all the bags and disposed of them, as their part of the clean-up.

Thanks to everyone involved including Friends of the Wye supporters Barry & Caroline.
