HELPING TO CLEAN UP OUR COAST AND COUNTRYSIDE
While in Essex for a couple of days after my volunteering at the London Marathon, I decided to do a litter pick in the lovely village of Fyfield which is located two miles north of Ongar. The main road through the village is plagued with litter which has been thrown from vehicles passing through with most of the two sacks I collected being plastic bottles and cans. I also discovered two clear sacks and one black sack full of waste which had been dumped in a ditch at the side of the road, a carrier bag containing unused PPE, two estate agent signs and an undelivered parcel dumped in the undergrowth.
I contacted Epping Forest District Council who would come and pick up the three fly tipped bags and the litter I collected. I contacted the relevant estate agents who said they would get their sign contractor to pick them up and the parcel, I reported it to Yodel and informed the addressee who was pleased to get his parcel which was dated 12/07/2022. I received lots of messages from residents of the village who were very grateful to me for tidying up a very busy road.
