Did you know that Ted Hughes was a keen fisherman? He helped to found the Westcountry Rivers Trust in 1995 and would spend much time on the rivers, catching salmon in chalk streams and studying the upwing flies found in the water. Ted Hughes spent his teenage years in Mexborough and his time around the Don influenced much of his poetry

All equipment will be provided but please wear warm clothes, sturdy shoes and bring waterproofs. We will bring the tea, coffee and biscuits! We offer volunteer expenses for public transport and vehicle mileage.

Come and join us for the Ted Hughes Litter Pick!
