HRH The Duchess of Cornwall (President)

A message from Her Royal Highness:

“Litter is an affliction of our society that causes all kinds of problems. It is not only that it ruins the look of many a street or village, but its negative effects reach much deeper. Litter causes these areas to look uncared for and, even worse, causes their inhabitants to feel neglected and unsafe. As the President of CleanupUK I wholeheartedly applaud the work it is doing, not only by encouraging everyone to wage war on litter, but also by helping those residents in the less affluent areas of the United Kingdom to get together to clean up their neighbourhoods, and so improve their quality of life.

I urge you to join me in supporting CleanupUK with the hope that we can all make our country litter free in the future.”
