The Great British Spring Clean

27 Mar 2024, 10:00 – 12:00
Amesbury, Shears Dr, Amesbury, Salisbury SP4 7XT, UK
Amesbury Town Council will be supporting this year’s Great British Spring Clean!

This year we are spreading the word that the environment belongs to everyone! We are proud that hundreds of thousands #LitterHeroes from many different communities are uniting to help tackle litter – some of which has been in our environment since we were founded 70 years ago.

Many of our volunteers regularly find ‘retro rubbish’ that was dropped many years ago but is still causing harm to our environment today, releasing greenhouse gases as it slowly breaks down in our soil and water, which contributes to the climate crisis.

The good news is that litter-picking is a simple action that anyone can do. It makes an immediate and visible difference to the environment where we live, work and play.  In fact around 95% of people surveyed after 2023’s campaign agreed they felt they had made a difference to their local area, and 91% said they felt part of a national movement that is taking action to tackle litter.

So, if you want to protect our wildlife and the places you love this spring, join the Great British Spring Clean and pledge to pick up a bag – or more.
