Local Liberal Democrat Parliamentary candidate Peter Barrett and his wife Liz took time out from the general election campaign on Saturday morning to join in a litter pick organised by Muirton Park residents as part of the National Spring Clean campaign to improve the environment and local amenity. Liz and Peter lent a hand to the team of volunteers of all ages. Peter said “I was very impressed by the safety briefing and instructions. But the best thing was the enthusiasm and community spirit of the volunteers who collected so much rubbish. It was also very good to see how much of the area was actually free of litter and great to see youngsters and older folks working side by side. I noticed a big difference in how much cleaner so much of the neighbourhood is now compared to the past."
