Volunteering

So, seeing as Rachel’s volunteering itch hasn’t quite been sated yet she’s arranged for a bunch of her fellow Wigan Council staff to take part in a litter-pick around one of the Nature reserves in Wigan. They’re all wrapped up warm and get issued with all of the appropriate PPE before they set off to save the environment one bin bag at a time.

They all seem to have had a really good time and when they’re done, Rachel supplies them with a hot drink as the waste van arrives to collect the refuse bags.

One of the Nature Reserves which Rachel has helped to volunteers for.

They all leave knowing they’ve done something really worthwhile for the community.

We used to call people who drop rubbish ‘litterbugs’ but I think that phrase might have gone out of fashion. That said, it’s still more polite than what I usually shout through my windscreen, when drivers throw cr#p out of their car windows!
