The shuttle team relax with some of the rubbish collected. Both the Shuttle and cray river-keepers are now separating  recyclables (clear bags) from other waste before it is taken away by the Council. We would rather be spending time on habitat enhancement work, so appeal to the public to dispose of their litter responsibly in future!

    FOTS were cleaning the river Shuttle at Berwick Crescent on Thursday 17 th November . Amongst. the rubbish collected was a virtually new bike. If anybody has had a bike stolen in that area and can give us an accurate description we will happily return the bike.
