The Hatch End Litter Pick-Up is now being run jointly by 1st Hatch End Scout Group and the Hatch End Association. The dates for 2023 will be confirmed soon:

We had 50 people at our final litter pick-up of the year on Saturday 8 October – adults and Scouts and youngsters. They collected a resounding 50 bags of rubbish! Do join us next year.

Details as follows:

• 10am-12 noon
• Start outside 1st Hatch End Scout Group HQ, off the car park between Leeway Close and Grimsdyke Road (behind Kwik Fit), HA5 4JB
• Collect a litter picker, gloves, a bag and tabard, or use your own equipment if you have it
• Pick up litter wherever you like in the local Hatch End area
• Return bags to designated place (TBC) for collection by Harrow Council
• Refreshments are kindly offered by Fr David, vicar of St Anselm’s Church from 12 noon onwards at St Anselm’s Church, Westfield Park, Hatch End HA5 4JL

Please come and help – all are welcome. We had a great turnout on Saturday 12 March (see Summer Bulletin for a full report). Help us keep Hatch End a pleasant place to live and work.
