Dreamscheme group's litter pick helps Highbridge In Bloom bid

Young members of Highbridge's Dreamscheme launched a big clean-up operation in the town to ensure it was tidy before the visit of judges from the Britain In Bloom competition.

The enthusiastic group of 20 children and the group's leaders collected several sackfuls of rubbish, as pictured, to help the Southwell House and Gardens Committee prepare for the all-important visit. Burnham-On-Sea.com reported here how the judging went.

Highbridge's Dreamscheme was set up by the Children and Young Persons Sub-Committee of the Local Action Team for Highbridge, alongside Highbridge Police.

It involves young people aged 8-16 taking part in community work, such as litter picks, in return for points that can be used towards day trips and other activities. If you are interested in joining, see the official website here.
