Hot on the heels of the Spring Clean at Hurst Castle is the Friends Annual Litter Pick on Sunday 6th April 2025.
By the end of all this effort on behalf of the Friends, the castle should be looking pristine and ready for visitors!
The ferry filled up quickly for the Spring Clean, so if you'd like to join in with the Litter Picking event, please let Tricia know asap (this is really important) so that she can ensure that there’s enough space on the ferry. And enough biscuits!
