Better Thornton Heath

Winchester Litter Pickers were founded in 1995 when three people decided to do more about the litter problem in and around the City. Currently (April 2021) we have over 40 active volunteers and many more supporters. We think it is especially important to give visitors to Winchester a good impression of the City. During the summer months we tidy the Outer Close of the Cathedral daily in the late afternoon and on Monday mornings throughout the year we clear the approaches to the railways station. Twice a month on Wednesday mornings we clear suburban areas in turn, concentrating on the streets and open spaces near the local shops and in particularly bad black spots. We are very much into recycling, recovering the cans, glass and plastic bottles we collect wherever practicable. We are also keen to limit the damaging effects of plastic litter. We are a very sociable group and normally meet up for hot drinks and chats after our litter picks. We also have a very popular annual party. Anyone who would like to join us is invited to call Eddie Woodnutt on 01962 863047 or Jan Wood on 01962 853712 or email us on tidywinchester@gmail.com. You are very welcome to join any of our litter picks as a non-member, but please let us know in advance, so that we can bring along a spare litter grabber if necessary. Our group litter picks will resume on April 12, meeting up in groups not exceeding 6, in accordance with the current COVID restrictions.

To keep our tiny little village tidy and to raise funds for the charities that my daughters school supports

Keep Ashford Clean is a community group based in South Ashford, Kent with the aim to held litter picking events once a month at various locations.

If you're reading this you're probably already aware that there is a serious litter problem and something must be done! As well as solo daily pickings while walking the dogs, I'm also organising various community clean-ups, mostly a monthly one at the Welsh Harp. I have lots of equipment which I'm very happy to lend out, as well as welcoming suggestions for other areas that need a clean-up. Please contact if you wish to get involved.

Too new to have any comment. Hope to be encouraging a walking group in the Parish.

I am tired of seeing rubbish and dog fouling in my local area. We have a beautiful park and nature reserve and I'm seeing more and more fly tipping not just here but all around my local area. I am hoping there are like minded people out there who for a few hours whenever you can we can organise a clean up of the most blighted places and into the bargain get some much needed excercise and make a few friends along the way. I hope to hear from you soon.

I have just started this group, having been surprised to find there is no group in Exeter. I would particularly like to find people willing to help keep the 'Valley Parks' litter free.

We are dog walkers and pick up on our walks in and around Crowborough, the Asdown Forest and wherever we caravan.

A voluntary community group whose aims are that local people adopt an area and help to keep it tidy

Maidenhead & Windsor Greenstreets is a small but growing group of people from around the Royal Borough who care about our natural surroundings. Sadly, like most areas in Britain, our borough is increasingly blighted by litter - it is a lovely part of the country, and lets try to keep it that way. So dont look the other way, join us today and start to make a difference. Even a few minutes a day can make a big difference. Volunteers are encouraged to pick up a bag a day and litter picking events are organised for areas that need special help!
