Nicole from the IGNITE team was there too helping out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Volunteers of all ages, including whole families were there to get stuck in. There\u2019s (unfortunately) always plenty of rubbish to pull out of the river but this time the notable (and large) items included a rocking horse, a pool table (!) and a suitcase. Many more bags of rubbish and recycling were also removed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">A great community effort from all involved.
