A FIELD used by Woodley and Earley residents is now looking cleaner and greener thanks to some kind-hearted residents.
The latter-day Wombles from Earley Adopt-a-Street gathered in Bulmershe earlier this month for the community clean-up. They were helped by ward councillors.
Bulmershe Field is mostly in Woodley but partly in Earley and representatives and volunteers from both sides of the border pitched in.
Among those helping was Bulmershe and Whitegates councillor Andy Croy.
“It was a great turn out to a well-organised event,” he said.
“Adopt-a-Street is a scheme whereby local residents adopt a street, a part of a street or a walking route and, when they are able, collect litter on their route.
“The litter is left out on your normal bin collection day in specially provided bags.”
He added: “Adopt-a-Street volunteers all over the Borough do a great job and its fantastic to come together in a group to show a bit of extra love to an area.”
