How would you improve your community?
Where does one begin.
Like many large towns and cities in the Uk no one really gives a thought to other people. We are a mixing pot of cultures up here and integration is fairly low on everyone’s agenda, we all have our own little communities and it’s like we are all scared of talking to each other.
Many have tried and failed to address the issue and I guess there are still those trying now, it’s pretty much failed though and is going to take something pretty outstanding for things to work.
Maybe time will be the healer and we all sit back and wait for that to happen, but it’s not going to in reality is it?
Litter…maybe that’s where we start. I remember back in the 70’s we had the keep Britain tidy campaign and that really got me on side. Hand on heart if I ever have any litter it goes in my pocket/Bag and I dispose of it when appropriate. That’s just me though. It really grinds my gears, I go walking and take a bag with me for litter. My neighbours watch me cleaning the green area outside our houses but they contribute most of the mess, and I’m sure they do it just to keep me busy.
I’d love it if one day one of them would join me to lend a hand and show some respect of the area in which they reside.
Maybe that’s the answer, start a litter club, who knows.
In the meantime I’ll carry on doing my bit, you never know it might just catch on.
Stay safe.
