Lovely message from Tamsin Melville of @BBCSpotlight:

‘Real pleasure to do some litter picking in Redruth with @ruthmajor44 today. She’s back from an epic trip across the country using her bus pass and raising awareness of her “Beautify Britain” campaign @BBCSpotlight’

Thank you,Tamsin & Tony, for your dedication in supporting the campaign ….in the pouring rain! 😀
