HVRA Litter Blitz Saturday 16th July

We are going to be holding a Litter Blitz throughout the HVRA area on Saturday July 16th.

Wycombe District Council have said that they will supply High Visibility Vests, Picking Sticks, and Refuse Sacks, and will collect our refuse either on the day or the following day.

We are aiming to start at 11am and finish at 12.30 when we hope to meet at the Harrow for a celebratory drink.

It would be lovely to have a good turnout, and perhaps gets some good photos for the website, and/or magazine.

If you would like to join in, please contact Lin Smith on 01494 562533, or email her on linsmith38@btinternet.com. Everyone will be welcome, the more the merrier.
