Reading RESCUE ideas? #rdg

Reading RESCUE – Rivers and Environmental Spaces Cleanup Event – is now twice a year – spring and autumn. Has anyone got any ideas for a project in the Newtown will Wokingham road area? In the past we have done litter picks by the Thames, cleared fly tipping in alleys and even a swap shop. See below for more details from the council:

"The date for Autumn RESCUE has been set as Friday 12th and Saturday 13th October.  We have extended the theme this Autumn to include woodlands as well as waterways.  This was in response to the popularity of the event last October and feedback from participants that woodlands in Reading need more attention during RESCUE events.
 
Thank you to those of you who have already shown interest in taking part. 
 
If you are an individual who would like to take part, please email back telling me where and when you would like to work (Friday / Saturday morning or afternoon).  However, if you want to enter a group, please complete the online registration form: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?fromEmail=true&formkey=dFR6N0R3V0dEUDVyeWZveG41MVRXbUE6MQ
 
The deadline for group registrations is Monday 24th September.
 
We will be having a committee meeting on Monday 17th September at 6pm at Novotel Hotel, Friar St, Reading.  Please let me know if you would like to attend to discuss plans for this upcoming RESCUE, as well as the main event in March."
