In March 2017 members of the Civic Society joined forces with members of the Rotary Club of Grimsby to participate in the annual, national “Spring Clean”. As before we assembled in the car park of the Fishing Heritage Centre, and made a big impression on the immediate area from Corporation Bridge through to Frederick Ward Way.
A huge problem area, where we recovered at least 60 spirit and wine bottles, is the shrubbery surrounding the boat house. This needs further attention because there is so much broken glass.
We filled over 40 black sacks ,which along with litter pickers, were provided by the N.E.Lincs Works Depot who kindly took away the load at the end of the day.
