Spring is not far away and this means the annual Great British Spring Clean is quickly approaching. This nationwide event takes place between 17th March – 2nd April.

We are happy to support any volunteers who wish to participate in this litter picking campaign which has such a positive impact on our environment and the communities we live in. We have a limited amount of litter picking kit we are happy to loan out and we can also arrange for the disposal of any litter collected. This year we are happy that both Biffa and NES (National Enforcement Solutions) have been very generous in providing litter picking equipment.

If you wish to take part we ask that you contact us as soon as possible (email: springclean@rother.gov.uk or Tel. 01424 787000) so we can support your clean up. As well as making sure we can collect any sacks of litter after your event promptly we also want to make sure your litter pick is carried out in a safe manner and location. We do have some kit which includes a small number of litter pickers, sack hoops, sacks and gloves which we are happy to provide to volunteers (Litter pickers and sack hoops can be borrowed).

We look forward to hearing from you and working together with Biffa and NES to help keep Rother looking clean and tidy.
