Introduction
Activity No. 5: Outdoor Litter Picker Walk is an optional activity. This activity is to get the Ladybirds out and about and understand the importance of leave no trace by taking an active role for the good of their local community.

Instructions
Explain to the Ladybirds what “Leave no Trace” is. Go to a local park/beach/public area. Put the Ladybirds in small teams of 4 with an adult/Senior Brancher and ask them to collect 10 pieces of plastic rubbish. Then recycle the plastics gathered in the appropriate recycling bin.
