What an amazing 12 months we’ve had! Today we give a big thank you to everyone who took part in our Community Litter Picks.
It’s all down to you – our amazing colleagues and members who care passionately about your local high streets, green spaces and residential areas. You joined in over the last 12 months to make a difference and helped keep our communities litter free.
There is no doubt that these organised litter picks have been a real success, and we now want to update you on what we are doing to take this activity forward for the next 12 months:
The Society organised events have ended after the September litter pick; but we don’t want all of the work you have already done in the last year through our litter picks to end.
The benefits of taking an hour away from your day job to get out in the fresh air, contributed to the way your local area looks and the effect on mental health and wellbeing.
Our colleagues and members have told us that they want to continue to support keeping their local communities litter free but need to have the flexibility to do this on different days and times to suit both staffing levels and business needs.
What's next?
We will restart the litter picks in the Spring of 2023 but these will be organised by site at a time to suit your area.
A big thank you once again to our fantastic colleagues, you make us so proud! Let’s keep the litter pick momentum going from the Spring of 2023. Contact yourcoop.community@midcounties.coop if you have any further questions.
