Though generally not a major problem, our proximity to the Osborne Road ‘strip’ ensures regular Saturday night through traffic of homeward-bound revellers. The inevitable detritus that ensues is dealt with by a group of volunteers who take turns to clear the street and lanes each weekend.

Volunteers are always welcome, so if you would like to join in, please email

litter@fernavenue.org.uk

The current schedule for volunteers can be found on the Calendar. You can also

• If there are any instances which can’t easily be handled by volunteers, such as fly tipping or excessive rubbish around bins, please contact Envirocall on the number below
  
  
• Please don’t attempt to handle any dangerous items such as drugs paraphernalia or needles. Anything of this nature should be reported immediately to Envirocall.
