Help spring clean Scotland

Environmental charity Keep Scotland Beautiful is calling for Scotland’s communities to join a spring clean challenge.

Research by the charity revealed that 70 per cent of Scots are concerned about litter in their area.

Spring Clean Scotland is the perfect opportunity to spend half an hour picking up litter and disposing of it safely to help an area look cleaner and feel safer, and evidence shows it also prevents more litter being dropped.

Why not organise a litter pick with friends, family, workmates or your wider community? Or find one to join in with on Keep Scotland Beautiful’s Clean Up Scotland map.

Schools can get involved too – there is a ‘Live Lesson’ open to all schools across the UK. Visit www.keepscotlandbeautiful.org to find out more and sign up.
