Litter Angels 2010 and the Polka Dot



I am very fortunate to have met Gordon Henderson now our MP for Sittingbourne and Sheppey a couple of years ago. Gordon has always been passionate about the amount of Litter and rubbish that is strewn across our beautiful country. 2 years ago he launched Litter Angels, based on a story he wrote about Eric the Angel who comes down from heaven to help his young friends pick up litter and help inform the public that they are destroying our planet and wildlife. He went into schools with his Swale Community Action Project and enthused the young people to design posters to help emphasis this message. I was his assistant last year. Now Mr Henderson is a bit busy at the Houses of Parliament and the baton has been passed to me at the Polka Dot
We are going into schools in September to deliver workshops: Design a poster and make growths from rubbish.
To start our campaign the Polka Dot is offering Workshops to young people during the holidays
and you are very welcome to join us to make Recycled Art objects
Please book if possible They will be every wednesday through out August. We are also involved with Diversity House and on 1st August and 10th October will be doing workshops with them. See details above.
