Community clubs together to clean pond
Residents put on waders and waterproofs in a new year bid to keep the area clean, in conjunction with Havant Borough Council and the Environment Agency.
Members of the community plucked piles of bottles, bags, branches and cans from the water – which were then taken away by the council.

‘This is the first clean and we plan further sweeps along the southern, eastern and western sides in the spring.’
