Yesterday they collected around 50 bags, including empty bottles of spirits & terrifyingly, a machete!! Increasingly local residents are avoiding the eastern end of the Flats because of the antisocial behaviour & related litter. This local green space should be safe for everyone & clearly isn’t.

Yesterday was the monthly litter pick on Wanstead Flats, organised by local residents. It’s been an important part of keeping the Flats clean for many years. The litter is getting worse - & the finds more terrifying. Thanks to the Pickers for the 📷

This morning some of us joined the Park Primary School #bikebus - it was such a joyous way to start the week - & also illustrated how important safe routes for walking, scooting & riding to school are! @plaistovian.bsky.social @rokhsanafiaz.bsky.social @livingstreets.bsky.social

More vandalism of signs in the West Ham Park LTN - the council have only just finished cleaning up the spray painted signs…
This section was previously a School Street - making it safe for children to get to school on foot, by bike or scooter. Why so much hatred of this?!

Newham’s latest LTN around West Ham Park goes live today. It already has a petition against it which cites the usual ill-informed arguments. There is so much evidence out there that these schemes work! www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023...
