Rochdale Canal at Sandbrook Park
Members of the Rochdale Environmental Action Group (REAG), working in co-operation with Rhys Wynne of the Canal & River Trust, have been cleaning the Rochdale Canal from Kingsway to Sandbrook Park.
They have collectied cans, bikes, trollies and waste food. Dog fouling is another issue.
