Sally’s story – I’d rather get out there and do things

“We’ve been out together, various groups of us, doing some litter picking, some habitat management, bashing brambles and putting up bits of fencing… It’s been very good, because we’ve felt we’re doing something good for the area.”


About this video

Sally Emmerson told us her story of being asked if she was interested in helping with some litter picking in her local community, then how it progressed into being more involved with more environmental projects, such as planting and putting up fences.
