Two milestones were reached this weekend in the short life of the Thames Anglers Conservancy.
Since March 15th 2010 we have now collected 108 bags of bank-side rubbish off the river Thames between Cherstey and Teddington. Quite a staggering achievement for a group of volunteers and Anglers. This weekend saw our members up at Walton On Thames around Desborough Island and collecting 13 filled bags of rubbish plus a TV, Deckchair and a broken spade. Thanks to the TAC members who turned up and helped including our youngest member. Pictures of the event are below.
In addition we reached the 500 members mark this weekend, for a club only going since January, the support has been incredible.
