Rid litter day for residents
5:09pm Saturday 11th October 2008
A group of women in Allerton, Bradford, are cleaning up a neglected nature spot to re-create the play area it was many years ago.
They have cleared up Ayresome Oval for children to play and parents to meet.
The group received litter-pickers from Bradford Council’s Streets Ahead department to help make the area clean and safe.
Chris Slaven, Streets Ahead Neigh-bourhood Manager for Allerton, said: “It’s fantastic that residents are coming together to help the whole community. At Streets Ahead we will do what we can to support residents in making a difference to their local area.”
