We were delighted to visit TwoCan Group again, and this time we went out into the local community for a litter pick!
TwoCan is a fantastic local theatre company based in Gloucestershire, bringing people together through creativity, and performance arts. They create opportunities for people of all abilities to get involved, build confidence, develop new skills and express themselves. They also help prepare people for future opportunities, supporting them to develop their independence, skills and confidence along the way. It’s all about making theatre accessible and giving everyone the chance to get creative! You can learn more about the work TwoCan does here.
Wrapped up in multiple layers, and with their litter pickers our 11 fantastic volunteers headed out to tackle litter in the surrounding area. It might have been a cold day, but that certainly didn’t stop these young people from rolling up their sleeves and getting stuck in!
Over several hours, everyone worked incredibly hard, covering the local area and collecting 9.83kg of litter along the way. Their determination, teamwork and willingness to make a difference were brilliant to see.
One of the loveliest parts of the day was the response from the local community. As we made our way around, several residents stopped to thank the group for their efforts. Seeing their smiles and hearing those kind words made every moment worthwhile.
It’s easy to underestimate the difference a few people can make, but days like this are a wonderful reminder that small actions can have a big impact. Not only did our volunteers help make their local area cleaner, but they also inspired others along the way.
A huge thank you to all eleven volunteers at TwoCan Group for giving up their time, braving the cold and showing such fantastic enthusiasm. We loved visiting you again and are incredibly proud of everything you achieved!
At Life’s a Beach, we believe in taking action, educating others and encouraging everyone to play their part. What better way to do that than by making a difference right on your own doorstep?
Act. Educate. Encourage.
