Midleton Tidy Towns

The rain held off for much of this morning's @MidletonTidy outing. The unchecked blight of dog fouling - grotesquely evident today - requires a change in policy by @Corkcoco. We need a more proactive, tougher approach - to recruit more litter wardens & provide dog fouling bins.

Productive morning with @MidletonTidy. We picked up three large weighty bags of unknown material, dumped over the Cork Road bridge, along with a perfectly intact scooter.

Great to be back out with @MidletonTidy this morning. Again, much of town was in good condition. Some grim deposits by the bridge near Market Green but overall an encouraging outing. New volunteers always welcome.

A smaller group out with @MidletonTidy this morning. A few teeming bins to contend with but much of town was in very good condition. We hope to have more of a focus on biodiversity initiatives & place-making in the coming months. New volunteers are v welcome.

Great to be out with @MidletonTidy earlier, around the Mill Road, the train station and Park St, as well as under the bridge near Market Green. Lesson of the day was to bring a separate bag for Deposit Return containers.

.@MidletonTidy today. Some more pics.

Great weather for @MidletonTidy's outing this morning and much to be done. A committed & hard-working core group of volunteers with more joining us all the time. It was satisfying to able to separate quite a volume of cans for the Deposit Return machines.

Important to have Midleton looking its best for the St. Patrick's Day parade today. @MidletonTidy were out in force this morning. Aside from the odd nest of cigarette butts & cluster of fruit peelings, the town centre was in good condition. Looking forward to the parade later!

Great to be out again with @MidletonTidy. We tackled some of the walkways near Ballyannan woods. Aside from the festering troves of dog-poo bags, an uplifting morning of community spirit!

Great to meet @ClodaghMidleton with @MidletonTidy again today & to discuss common goals for East Cork.

Another uplifting morning with @MidletonTidy. The town centre was generally in good condition. Community spirit is strong among the group and new volunteers continue to join.

A productive morning with @MidletonTidy. Great to team up with such a dynamic group of volunteers, including @ClodaghMidleton . Special word of thanks to Fiona & Susan who co-ordinate so much of the activity and liaison with the Council.
