An amazing 2025 by the Brig Litter Pickers!

I'm so proud of the lovely volunteers who came out throughout 2025 to help tidy up Bamber Bridge.

The stats here speak for themselves, but the group is more than just the stats. We've spent the year not just cleaning up the streets together, but laughing, eating, and talking together as friends.

And out of the simple idea of "let's tidy up Brig" has flowed so much more.

BLT volunteers moved between different community groups to help not only tidy up Brig, but actively make it better and stronger. They helped clean up at the Battle of Bamber Bridge, and they came to support the Time Capsule event at St Saviours, and they helped clean up Brownedge Pond.

And from these humble beginnings grew the idea to start the Bamber Bridge in Bloom group. This merry band of litter pickers now want to make Bamber Bridge Blooming Beautiful in 2026 - and I think they will do it because they are amazing!

Final Litter Pick of 2025!

I could never have imagined, when I walked along St Mary's Road last December and saw litter being blown along the road, that my sudden thought of "we need to do something about this" would lead to this!

Almost a year to the day, Brig's very own band of litter picking volunteers met up to undertake the very last pick of 2025, and we had a blast in our Xmas gear wombling up and down Station Road.

The rain was kind to us and we managed to get rid of:

🚮 13 bags of litter!

🎈 4 Nox Canisters

🚬 12 vapes

Thank you to the lady who stopped us to say what a difference we are making to Brig, and how much it means to the village. That was just the most lovely thing for the volunteers to hear as we stacked the bags up against the bin on Station Road - thank you from us all!

And thank you to The Big Sandwich Bamber Bridge for the lovely biscuits you gave the volunteers as we sat down for a much needed brew afterwards - they were delicious!

We are having a break for the holiday period, but we will be back in 2026. If you want to join us, please visit: https://tinyurl.com/JoinBrigsLitterTeam
