More than 20 people turned out to do their bit to help - not just within the town itself, but clearing litter from the approach roads.
Coun Steven Bunney, who chairs the Rasen Community Partnership, said: “It was fantastic to see people join in the socially distanced tidy up.

Tim Briddock, Chair of The Mill Residents Group added his thanks to the volunteers who worked on the river bank.
He said: “The river bank looks much better now from every point of view and I would like to commend the efforts of those involved in the operation on Saturday morning.
“Thanks from everyone here at Church Mill and I wish all the volunteers well and good with their worthy contribution to the upkeep and welfare of the community.
