The BIG Spring Clean 2014

It's nearly time to "spring" into action again during the BIG Spring Clean.

Residents, businesses, parish councils and community groups are invited to get involved between 1st March and 30th April 2014. Last year 64 groups took part in the campaign, with 2,000 volunteers collecting 400 bags of rubbish to improve the local environment. You can request free bin bags and gloves and can also borrow litter pickers and hoops (litter picking equipment is available to loan throughout the year). After the event, the council can arrange to collect and dispose of the rubbish and recycling. Recycling is encouraged and different types of bags can be provided.

You need to register by Friday 21 February to take part. Download a booking form from:

Alternatively you can request a form by emailing streetcleansing@southglos.gov.uk or calling 01454 868000.
