Boat Litter-Pick

Join DCRT for a special litter pick… from a boat!

Volunteers are welcome to get on the boat from Swinton Lock Activity Center (Dun St, Swinton, Mexborough S64 8AN ) at 9am for an hours cruise along the canal. Alternatively, you may wish to join us at Low Lock (Low Lock House. Off, Pastures Rd, Mexborough, Doncaster DN12 4ET) at 10am for the official start of the litter pick. From here we will enter the Don navigation and start litterpicking those usually hard to reach places returning to Low Lock for 1pm. 

There is limited spaces therefore this is a bookable event. If you wish to book on please email [email protected] or call 01302 796 173 and let us know where you will be getting on.
