Yesterday, in support of Calderdale Councils annual Big Spring Clean, CVSRT members and supporters took part in the clean-up of an illegal fly-tipping hotspot.

The site, across the River Calder from ROKT and clearly visible from Brighouse town centre, has long been a blight on the local landscape.

Technical rope and water safety skills were used to protect team members as they cleared a steep area above the river of an array of fly-tipped items ranging from settees to gnomes!

Four hours and three full wagons of cleared material later, the site was transformed back to its natural litter free state.
