If you need to escape from the TV for a bit 👑 Meet us at 10am for a quick pick around the town 👍 #Hebburnlitterpickers #litter #keepbritaintidy #bonnyhebburnontyne

It's World Wellbeing Week and for most of us, walking your way to wellness is one of the easiest things to do...and along the banks of the Tyne is a great place to do it. #WorldWellbeingWeek

Great team 💪💪💪 15 volunteers working hard 😁 10/10 for their work today ❤️ #lovewhereyoulive #litter #heroes #keepbritaintidy

Nice to see this #wildlifepond I created for a client in 2022 has settled in nicely, as part of a #widlifegarden that I made. It includes a native hedge & climbers to all sides, native trees, a mini #wildflowermeadow, hedgehog access, bee hotel, log piles, bird boxes, herbaceous borders & a hibernaculum, all in a relatively small new build garden. You don’t need vast acres to help #wildlife. 🐝 🦔 🦋 🐸

@DaveGoulson @PAN_UK They have no principles

Notes from the recent Expert Committee on Pesticides meeting, with respect to the application for an "emergency application" of #neonicotinoids on sugar beet. Why is our government not following the science?

Goodbye 2023, you threw me monumental curveballs!! Although things are still tough I’m glad to welcome a fresh new calendar year with hope, energy and enthusiasm. Sending you all so much love, light, courage and strength 🌿 And above all #CEASEFIRE_NOW 🕊️

The volunteers did a quick tidy for Monkton village and their remembrance ceremony, and then went on to their usual Saturday morning pick 👍 The words of the armistice ceremony are as relevant as ever today - let us pray for all who suffer as a result of conflict #peace

The volunteers found a poorly hedgehog - unfortunately he did not survive 😢 🦔 We found a number of trees and shrubs had been cleared 😭 and are working to get this area replanted 💪 We are working to protect and enhance our town ❤️ #leaveitbetter #nature #lovewhereyoulive

The kids did good today - 8 of our volunteers this morning are 16 or under ❤️ #lovewhereyoulive #leaveitbetter #keepbritaintidy

We enjoyed meeting other volunteer groups today and getting the chance to thank some of the people who have supported our team ❤️

We dug deep to find the litter today and didn't let the snow put us off 💪 💪 We had a good snowball fight ❄️ We spotted tree creepers, fieldfares and our local parakeets 🦜🐦 😁 #lovewhereyoulive #litter #keepbritaintidy

Team of 15 soggy volunteers 🌧️ making the place better every week 💪 #lovewhereyoulive #leaveitbetter

We love our Tyne Riverside Park and we wanted people to visit and take pride in it ❤️ Great team of 8 litter pickers out this morning - aged 12 and up 💪 #lovewhereyoulive #keepbritaintidy #litter #leaveitbetter

Great volunteers out every single week 💪 Merry Christmas from the Hebburn team #lovewhereyoulive #litter #leaveitbetter #keepbritaintidy

Next year, please let the dandelions grow! They support over 50 insects species. They're a great early season food source for pollinators including bees, butterflies and hoverflies. No need to mow. And please don't use weedkiller. RT if you're on board 🐝

The brilliant duo chairing our @AoC_info #qtla2023 conference today... Gill Burbridge from @Leyton6thForm and @SuccessNorthDi from @newcastlecol

Yes! @ChrisGPackham is spot on. We need a Climate & Ecology Bill in the #KingSpeech. This is our last, best chance to pass serious climate and nature legislation. Join me in backing @cebill_now and the #CEBill. twitter.com/ChrisGPackham/…

@toomuchchoice Haha

@SuccessNorthDi Variety is the spice of life.

Hundreds of Fosters cans over a 2 mile stretch. Convinced it's one person, a few cans every day before they go into work..all bagged and then some, on a lovely Autumn morning. #lovewhereyoulive

Brilliant! Thank you @RoyalMail
