Really Making a Difference #1: Various photographs from our regular "Litter Pick Action Days" Print

Litter is one of the problems most regularly raised in our surveys and on the doorsteps.

Instead of just complaining about it - Chatham & Aylesford Conservatives actually 'roll up our sleeves' and do something positive.  Every couple of weeks we hold a "Litter Pick Action Day" and tackle some of the notorious trouble -spots. So far this year - we have taken over 50 sacks of litter to the tip.

Politics is all about leading from the front and trying to make a difference to the local community.

These two group-photographs are of Tracey Crouch and Councillors and volunteers from the Chatham and Aylesford ends of the constituency:
