“Rubbish Friends” Litter pickers and Southport Hoteliers Association team up to clean up!!

Southport’s litter picking group “Rubbish Friends” will be out on Wednesday 3rd August cleaning up Southport Promenade before the next round of Britain in Bloom Judging on 5th August.

The intrepid volunteers will be working alongside members of Southport Hoteliers Association to spruce up the area between the Promenade, Bath Street and Neville Street in time for the judges walk-about onto Lord Street.

Councillor Sue McGuire, co-founder of the Rubbish Friends group explained “Nothing stands out more than one piece of litter in a perfectly coiffured flower bed or a weed in a gutter. 

Rubbish Friends want to do their bit to support the work of the other fantastic volunteer groups; Lord Street in Bloom and the Friends of Rotten Row Gardeners to make Southport bloom.”

Councillor Pat Keith added “This is the second time Rubbish Friends have worked alongside the Southport Hoteliers Association to clean up this area of Southport. This is a case of the more the merrier so we are looking forward to welcoming some new litter pickers to lend a hand.”

Volunteers will be meeting outside the Ambassador TownHouse on Bath Street at 12:30pm. For more details please contact Councillor Sue McGuire on 07766 968162 or email sue@bluefountain.com
