Adopt Your Street posterWe are pleased to welcome Ricky Josey to the Caversham GLOBE meeting on Tuesday 28th February to talk about the new Reading Adopt Your Street Scheme as well as the RESCUE (Rivers & Environemntal Spaces Clean-up Event. Ricky is now working with Reading Borough Council’s streetcare team to set up the Adopt Your Street scheme in which local residents can volunteer to help keep their area clean. The scheme runs successfully in neighbouring boroughs and is now being extended to Reading. You can choose the area you want to keep clean and tidy and when you want to do it. Volunteers will be provided with litter pickers, plastic bags, gloves and high-vis. Any street or local space can be adopted. All are welcome to the meeting to hear more about this important initiative, which supports residents in caring for their communities and environments.
