Green Spaces team seeking clean-up volunteers
Rotherham Council’s Green Spaces Team, along with Denis MacShane MP, borough councillors and the Winterhill Environmental Group, are setting out to give Engine Pond in Kimberworth a tidy-up.
Their aim is to clear the pond, remove any litter and open-up overgrown areas to help create the perfect home for wildlife.
