Top work from our litter pick team in Whitley Bay yesterday! ♻️💚

Despite the typically inconsistent bank holiday weather, a group of local Green Party members met at Spanish City and took to the seafront to keep their community tidy. If you know of anywhere in North Tyneside that would benefit from a thorough sprucing up, let us know.

Members, if you’d like to take part in an upcoming litter pick, please do come along: there’s always a great team spirit and a sense of achievement, but do bring a waterproof. Watch your inbox and party platforms for updates on when and where! 🫵
