AN area of Brandon is going to get a Spring clean thanks to a cash contribution from one of the town's councillors.
Councillor Bill Bishop, Chairman of Forest Heath District Council and a Suffolk County Councillor, has given £2,000 from his locality budget for the project in Green Road, Brandon.
Work to trees in the area has already begun and on Thursday 20 March residents, council staff, volunteer American airmen and women and school children are holding a litter pick in the area between 10am and 1pm.
Forest Heath District Council has contributed a further £2,000 to the project which is being spent on bulb planting and more tree work.
Councillor Tony Simmons, the Forest Heath Member Champion for the Environment, said: "I thank Councillor Bishop for his important contribution. As a council we have a commitment to ensuring high standards for our environment and we welcome community involvement in projects like this."
