Thames Anglers Conservancy volunteers headed out for a Sunday morning clean up along a Thames tributary, the Beverley Brook.

A member who regularly walks the reach and had been doing litter picks, reported areas where rubbish was in the river and suggested a volunteer event.

Waders, litter pickers and bin bags were brought down and they set about the task in hand.

After a very enjoyable spring morning the volunteers cleared many bin bags of assorted rubbish, two car wheels, various pieces of timber, a push bike, numerous golf balls and road traffic cones.

Thanks again to everyone who came along and made a difference
