BRIGG COMMUNITY LITTER-PICKING RESUMES


Litter-picking volunteers are seen here in Brigg Market Place before setting off to tidy areas of the town on Saturday (September 19).
They included Town Mayor Coun Sharon Riggall (right) and Deputy Town Mayor Coun Brian Parker (left).
The town's first citizens were joined by other councillors, staff (past and present) and members of the public.
Co-ordinated by the Town Council, this was Brigg's contribution to the Great British September Clean, involving communities large and small across the country.
Equipment was distributed to volunteers from the Bandstand and anti-Coronavirus social distancing observed as demonstrated by our picture taken near the Buttercross.
Periodic Saturday litter-picking sessions are held in Brigg and publicised through the Town Council's website, Brigg Blog and Brigg Matters magazine which will be resuming publication in the autumn following a break during the emergency period.
If you have a few hours to spare, your litter-collecting support will be appreciated in the future. We will supply the date of the next one when it's confirmed.
