Think Globally Act Locally
We are an ambitious non-profit organization, based in the ward of Bowbrook. This group was created to spread the word of our good deeds and encourage others to get involved and support one another through their efforts.
We have a simple drive for a cleaner community as well as Great Britain.
But we are not reluctant to acknowledge that Rome wasn’t built in a day and these things take time. So we have made goals for ourselves. Our goals are simple at the end of the day, being; – Starting with a clean and tidy community and then slowly expand to other community’s around our local area of Shrewsbury. – Push for the local council to expand its environment budget to benefit the requirements needed by the British public. – Push for the local council to get a better understanding of the littering issue we are having and for them to focus more time and effort upon dealing with the issue. – More bins in shorter distances of each other to provide for the British public. – To provide awareness to the British public and to the youth of today so they can have an understanding of littering being a burden on society.
Asking for volunteers As a non-profit organization we struggle for helping hands, their fore we can only ever ask for volunteers to help us. We do not ask you to sign anything or pay for anything. All we ask you to do is next time you go out on a walk, take some gardening gloves and a bag with you. Pick up a few chocolate bar wrappers or plastic bottles. We would never ask you to pick up dirty needles or broken glass and highly advise you not to. The best thing in that situation is to report it to the council or if you have a litter picker (the name for the litter picking stick) is that you use that. But it also goes without saying don’t do anything you don’t feel comfortable with. No one should ever be at threat of harm. So if this group feels like something you wish to be involved with we have different styles of joining with it being
We hope you enjoy what we have to offer and wish this can be comforting for you. Hope to hear from you soon.
