Friday 14 June

Litter pick by canal barge

This event is being brought together by a quartet of organisations, Paper Mill at Frogmore, Just One Bag, Sunnyside and Abbots in Transition. The event will be on Friday 14th June, with the barge and the pilot to keep the boat on track, working the canal between Kings Langley and Hunton Bridge.

Sunnyside will be travelling on the barge from from Apsley to Hunton Bridge. Our aim is to litter pick at Hunton Bridge only.

We will send a team ahead to set up and begin at 10am. We will be clearing the area along the canal around the A41/Langleybury junction between 10am-2pm.

The barge will provide free lunch and refreshments to anyone helping litter pick.

The barge will leave at 2pm to make the journey back to Apsley with the collected waste.

We will have a presence on site litter picking from 10-2pm and all welcome to join.

More about South West Herts Great Big Green Week

The 2024 South West Herts Great Big Green Week (GBGW) will take place this year between the 8 to the 16 June – with the Watford Green Market takeover taking place on the 9 June.

Through the GBGW we are encouraging groups, individuals, businesses and schools to organise events across Three Rivers and Watford as part of this national week celebrating community action.

The GBGW campaign aims to draw attention to climate change and destruction of the natural world, while also making a connection with these issues and actions locally in Watford and Three Rivers.

Through the week we want to promote as many local groups and activities as possible to get as many people involved in green actions as possible – the aim is to ensure there is something for everyone – and through doing so grow and strengthen the “greenness” of our area.
