Nearly 70 volunteers took part in the second Project Freesheet walkabout in London. Groups worked in shifts of two hours from 3pm till 8pm, and those who started after 6pm reported that they were overwhelmed by the amount of discarded free papers. The final count was just under 800kg of newsprint gathered in just two hours. This represents over 100 free papers per volunteer, with the final count approaching 8,000 free papers.
