🚮 Litter Pick - This Afternoon 🚮
Are you joining us for our 2026 Big Tidy Up today?
Our annual litter pick takes place all over Charvil, starting from the Margaret Gimblett Pavilion at 2pm.
Last year, over 20 volunteers, aged 1 to 80, joined our Parish Councillors, and collected 23 bags of litter, a broken chair, carpet and various other bits and pieces that had been abandoned throughout the village.
☕ Their reward? A nice cuppa and other refreshments at the Pavilion and a sense of pride for helping keep our village tidy.
🗑 We'd love you to join us this year. Maybe we can beat the amount of litter tidied up last year?
