Community Clean-Up: RRT Joins Forces in North Winfield

On Wednesday, October 2nd, the Rapid Relief Team (RRT) Chesterfield volunteers teamed up with the North Winfield Parish Council for a local litter pick. RRT supported the initiative by providing 40 Krispy Kreme doughnuts for all participants!

The event aimed to keep the village of North Winfield tidy while fostering teamwork among locals. It also served as a platform to discuss community issues and share ideas for improvement. The council supplied all the necessary equipment, including litter pickers and gloves.

The day kick started at 10 AM, with participants gathering outside the North Winfield Community Resource Centre. This successful event was organised in partnership with Rykneld Homes and Vistry. In addition to positively impacting the community, attendees were treated to drinks and snacks afterwards as a reward for their hard work and dedication!

Over 15 bags of rubbish were collected in just two hours. Four RRT volunteers joined the litter pick, which the organisers greatly appreciated. 

The Rapid Relief Team was proud to participate in this effort to tidy up the streets of North Wingfield. It was a pleasure to collaborate with Rykneld Homes, and we are enthusiastic about continuing work on future community projects in the Chesterfield area.

Did you know that 30 million tonnes of litter are collected yearly from our streets— this is enough to fill four Wembley Stadiums The Rapid Relief Team (RRT) is committed to contributing to this vital effort and keeping our communities clean.
