Three GoodGymers set off on a pleasant Monday evening to finish the litter picking job around Croft Stairs, a set of steps leading to Manor Chare and the Quayside beyond, started a couple of weeks ago. There was so much litter on our previous litter pick that there wasn't time to collect it all.

Today's litter of choice seemed to be large glass bottles, some of them broken. Whether it was wine, Prosecco or vodka, people had decided to discard their empty bottles all over the streets of Newcastle. We managed to fill 13 bags with litter, making a real difference to how the area looks.

Welcome again to Libby, on her second good deed, putting her dog selfie skills to good use when taking one of the photographs for this report. Seasoned litter picker Scott won the award for most litter collected, his second bag being filled in close to record time.
