Litter Picking and Cleaning the Trym – Practicalities

SusWot has 2 related activities to clean up our local environment: general litter picking around the area wherever needed and an activity focussed on cleaning the River Trym to improve its ecosystem. We go out on the last Sunday in each month from 11am – 1pm doing one or both of these jobs.

This is a fun group activity and even after wallowing in rubbish for a couple of hours, the pub has never yet turned us away afterwards.
