There was a River & Riverbank clean-up today using the combined forces of Surfers Against Sewage, Abingdon Carbon Cutters, Abingdon Against Plastics and Kingfisher Canoe club, all coordinated by Anne Smart.
Anne Smart presented prizes for the three most unusual finds
(utility power block, ‘dollar’ lino and underwater power drill).
The river and river banks are now safer for wildlife.
This is a picture from the blog in May 2006. I believe that plastic ring can holders are still allowed in 2021, fifteen years later.
P.S Today’s blog post is dedicated to J.
Thank you for this excellent post Alistair. A terrific turn out for this litter pick, and an amazing amount of waste collected. Huge thanks to all 🙌💚

Thanks Alastair!
And AbiBinIt! By the way 🙂
Another great post Alastair. Really good to meet you yesterday after checking your blog daily for the last 12+ years. It really is excellent!
Well done also to the organisers of the litter pick. It was great to take part and give a little bit back to Abingdon.
