We were delighted to support the Paddle Peak River Clean Team by collecting the rubbish after they went out on the Derwent again last week.
They removed mainly hay bale wrap still left over after Storm Babet through Hall Leys Park and down to Artist's Corner, leaving it spotless in time for Matlock's Easter visitors.
The team were joined by River Rangers from Severn Trent and Matlock NFU.
Paddle Peak's Pete Astles said:
"Special thanks to all of our tireless volunteers, Matlock McDonald's for parking, William Twigg Matlock Ltd for river access, Rapid Horizons for bringing their rafts, Peak PS & Hou Canoes for our equipment, and Derbyshire Dales for collecting the rubbish! Great work team."
