Grantham Rivercare says…
At the Easter weekend Grantham RiverCare volunteers were deployed in Wyndham Park at notice to clean up a 1000 plastic ducks seen floating down the Witham and out to sea.
Luckily, it was all planned and we were taking part in the Easter Egg Hunt and Duck Race. The Duck Race saw a 1000 ducks sold on the day, after a two-year break it was great to see it’s return from Rotary Club of Grantham Kesteven with us helping out again along with help from Grantham Scouts to catch the winning ducks and then scoop up the rest, luckily we had a catch net deployed.
We can happily report that no ducks escaped and headed downstream to Belton or even further.Our recently purchased Helping Hands Pro Litter Hoops came in to there own in helping to gather up the ducks.
These were funded by Lincolnshire Co-op Community Champions fund we received in 2021.
