A group which keeps part of Whaplode clean have been given a boost by Asda.
The Whaplode Playing Field Association has been given £380 for litter picking equipment for a team of eight volunteers including hi-vis vests, pickers, bag hoops, bin liners, and gloves.
The playing field is a well-used and valued facility providing play equipment for all ages and an extensive open area for free play and picnics. They’re one of four local groups that have received a total of £7,955 from the Asda Foundation’s Outdoor Community Spaces Fund thanks to the supermarket’s Boston branch. Asda Boston’s community champion, Stephen Bromby, said: “I’m delighted to be able to support these local groups.
“I know this money will make a massive difference to them over the coming months – especially as the days are now getting longer and warmer, and more people can get outdoors.”
