I am writing to express my disappointment at the response of Pickering people to the recent Community Clear Up day on March 21.
After your newspaper gave publicity to the event and it was discussed on the local radio, I had expected that a few people would have turned up to support us. However, this was not the case and the only four people who attended are regular litter pickers who come every month.
Please could I appeal, through your paper, for others to consider coming to give an hour of their time.
We meet on the second Saturday of each month in Eastgate car park at 10am. Everyone is welcome.
Gill Devonshire, Pickering
