Brackley Care Home hosts Sunday litter pick in the town
Brackley Care Home, in Wellington Road, Brackley, will be the starting base for an environmental clean-up from 11am to 1pm on Sunday, 24th March.
Local families are being invited to join care home staff, residents and members of the environmental group, Brackley Litter Wombles, in a litter pick.
Julie Wilson, Brackley Care Home’s Customer Relations Manager, said: “We care passionately about the environment of our town and hope lots of local people will support our event. We’ll be supplying everything you need including litter pickers, bags and gloves.”
Following the event, the volunteers will be invited into the Kingsley Healthcare care home’s Maypole Café for teas, coffees, juices and cakes.
“We want to continue our support for Brackley Litter Wombles and make this a regular event,” said Julie.
“They are a very active group, led by Conrad Woolley, and they do an amazing job to keep Brackley beautiful.”
She said many of the home’s residents were eager to take part in the event.
Brackley Litter Wombles, named after the environmentally conscious Wombles of Wimbledon Common, from the popular 1970s children’s television programme, have built up an impressive 400-plus membership and host regular events, including weekly Wednesday Wombles.
