On a recent maintenance run along the Pebble Way Gemstone route, we stopped in Stone by the Bugle Horn to give the signs a scrub. As you can see, they were in desperate need of a clean—check out the grime line on that black-and-white one by the bend!"

At today's litter pick, it was just me (the host) Despite being a solo, I managed to clear 4 bags of litter off our streets: ​🗑️ 2 bags of general rubbish ​♻️ 2 bags of recycling

We’re (literally) jumping for joy because it’s almost time for another litter pick! We’re heading to the Stoke Road / Court Close Bus Shelter this Sunday at 11am, and we need your help to keep our area looking top-notch. ​✅ All equipment provided @AylesNews @BucksFlyTipping

What a result! 🌟 2️⃣2️⃣ volunteers joined forces today to tackle the litter around Tring Road and Aston Reach. We managed to collect a whopping 1️⃣4️⃣ bags of general waste and 5️⃣ bags of recycling! 🚮

We’re reaching out from Aylesbury to Aston Reach and we would love your help make it the cleanest new build estate across Aylesbury! ​Please join us for a community litter pick on Sunday 22nd March from 11:00 am, meeting at the corner of Kempster Way and Aston Clinton Road.

That piece of litter isn't just an eyesore—it’s a noose, a blade, or a poisonous meal for a local animal. They are suffering in silence, trapped in the plastic we leave behind. ️📆| ​When: Sunday, March 15th | 11:00 AM 📍| ​Where: Osier Way

Today in Stoke Mandeville, we collected six bags of litter from around the village: four bags of general waste and two bags of recycling. In addition to the litter, we recovered several abandoned traffic cones and a large drag bag discovered in a hedge.

Today we were in Weston Turville with 4 fantastic volunteers, giving the main village and Marroway a good litter pick! 🧹✨ ​In total, we collected 7 bags of litter: ​🗑️ 4 bags of general rubbish ​♻️ 3 bags of recycling

The weather was a bit miserable for our group walk around Stone, but that didn't stop us! Two hardy souls braved the rain and thoroughly enjoyed discovering some new corners of Bucks they hadn't visited before.

Four brave souls headed out today to tackle the litter, despite the miserable weather. We focused our efforts along the stream, where we cleared a significant number of discarded cans.

Today we pulled 5️⃣ sacks of waste out of our environment. We spent a lot of time tackling the area near the Oakfield Road Lidl and the brook. ​ 2️⃣ bags recycled ♻️ | 3️⃣ bags rubbish 🚮 ​It’s a shame to see so much recyclable material dumped in the water.

Crisp air and great company! 🙌 Despite the cold, the three of us had a brilliant trek up Beacon Hill today. Between the local wildlife, great conversations, and those iconic Aylesbury Vale views, it was the perfect way to spend the morning. 🌲"
