Hi,
I d like to discuss a possible collaboration between Greener Growth volunteers & yourselves with regard to an area of the River Linnet further up towards The Spread Eagle & further along: 07740707073 jo@greenergrowth.co.uk
After my husband speaking 2 a very lovely inspirational lady and gentleman, picking up litter around the rugby club 2day, for the Bury water meadows group. My husband was so impressed, with the loveliness of people, that we have joined the group. It is so wonderful as members of the rugby club, that other people were willing to look after that area. Also as members of Saint Edmund pacers, we use that as a running route, and will promote your actions within the club.
