LITTER PICKING
Keeping our local area clean and litter free is also important. Litter Pickers of the New Forest is a group that has been set up to do just that - pick litter up that other just leave. In Brockenhurst and the surrounding areas this is vitally important to help protect our wild stock, but also let others see what a wonderful community we have and that we all care about our local environment.
