| Updated: 15:34, 01 February 2021 Stop throwing your disgusting rubbish out of your car - that s the message from Fenland s youngest Street Pride member who is busy keeping her road tidy.
Four-year-old Jessica Rowell is a member of Murrow Street Pride Group and has her own special hi-vis and litter picker which she uses when she tidies the grass verge near her home in Murrow Bank.
Her proud mum Keleigh Fenn explained Jessica, who is due to start full-time school in September, started to do litter picking when the family, which also includes dad Paul Rowell, and sisters Mia,12 and Olivia, 10, were preparing to cut the grass outside their home in the summer and realised it was covered in litter.

A four-year-old girl who started picking up litter from the roadside has made “an inspirational impact” to clean up her village.
When Jessica Rowell moved to Murrow last year, she noticed something needed to be done about the litter scattered along the side of the road.
“One day, we noticed an excessive amount of rubbish, so Jess brought her truck and trailer along and picked it up,” Keleigh Fenn, Jessica’s mother, said.
