Thurso volunteers pick up an ‘incredible 1700kg of waste’ from High Ormlie
The volunteers who helped out at a spring clean around High Ormlie in Thurso were praised for their “amazing effort” to tidy up the area.
Ormlie Community Association (OCA) hosted the litter-picking event last Saturday (March 22), which tied in with Keeping Scotland Beautiful Spring Clean 2025.
Grace Souter, OCA project development manager, said: “We would like to thank everyone who participated in our 'Clean Up Day' on Saturday, 22nd of March, 2025.
“A special thank you to Kenny Gow from the Highland Council for providing a skip. It was filled with an incredible 1700kg of waste – an amazing effort from everyone.”
The event ran from 11am to 1pm, with a free lunch for all those who helped on the day. Highland Council provided the group with a free skip, gloves, litter pickers and plastic bags.
