Volunteer to help clean your street
Join our Adopt a Street scheme
Our Adopt a Street scheme allows residents to help keep their neighbourhoods tidy.
How it works
- Volunteers complete the online application form
- We will contact you to arrange collection of equipment
- We provide litter pickers, bags and a high visibility waistcoat
- You can litter pick at times that suit you
- Adopt a street bags are treated as household waste, so place in or beside your bin
- You can recycle items collected - place loose in your recycling
The adopt a street bag should not be left elsewhere as they may be mistaken for fly tipped waste.
