A total of 23 people supported the group’s litter pick in March. As well as the usual areas of Morpeth, the volunteers also covered Whorral Bank and Castle Bank over the walls to Mafeking roundabout.

They filled 28.5 large black bags and cleared a very large traffic cone, a small traffic cone and a rotten bag that had been left on the ground for years.

If you are thinking about coming along this Sunday, please email Morpeth Litter Group co-ordinator Dai Richards – [email protected]
