Pride in Linthwaite started when one of our founding members decided to pick litter on his dog walks, tackling different areas at a time.
He soon discovered there were other individuals doing little bits around the village – but with no collaboration or sense of belonging to a common cause, so a local meeting was advertised and held in the local pub.
Twenty-eight people attended and it was agreed that a group should be formed in order to make a positive change to the village in which we live.
Not content with tackling local litter, a bloom team began filling planters, troughs and hanging baskets and a festival celebrating all things Linthwaite soon followed.
Pride in Linthwaite now has 5 sub-groups – Bloom, Planning, Youth, Events and Tidy – allowing groups or individuals to drive their own initiatives.
Social activities include curry nights, barbecues, local walks and picnics – and are open to every member of the local community.
