Over 90 pupils were involved and collected 45 bags of litter!

Netta dedicates much of her time to cleaning up her local area including the local secondary school, Marr College, and its playing fields. After noticing that litter was a particular problem around the school, she encouraged Marr College to create litter picking groups to help raise awareness of the issue and to encourage the pupils to change their behaviour. Netta also makes sure that Troon beach is kept litter free.
