AFTER a week of planting spring flowering bulbs with pupils from the County Primary and St Gabriel's schools, members of Higher Fold Residents Association held a litter pick.
Braving bad weather the volunteers, who included members of 26th Leigh Brownie Guides, the Residents Association and representatives from The Forestry Commission, Groundwork Trust, a local councillor and the estate caretaker collected over 20 bags of rubbish.
Six rubbish skips sited around the estate were also filled then after a welcome buffet the volunteers built bird boxes and tried their hand at willow weaving.
An Association spokesman said: "We would like to thank everyone who gave up their time to help organise and take part in the Environment Week."
