Thank you to everyone who turned up to help litter pick at Walmer Road Recreation Ground today.
This is a place enjoyed by so many from children using the play equipment, dog walkers, football clubs and people taking time out of their day to enjoy this green space.
When you are next at Walmer Road recreation ground please take your litter home with you to keep this green space beautiful for all.
Unfortunately a number of disposable vapes were discovered today. Disposable vapes can be harmful to people’s health and the environment. They contain toxic chemicals, create a lot of waste, are difficult to recycle, and can start fires. When electricals containing hidden batteries like vapes are binned, they can get crushed or damaged and spark dangerous fires in bin lorries and recycling centres. Last year there were over 1,200 fires across the UK caused by binned vapes and electricals.
