Local Communities Invited to Take Part in Spring Clean Cymru!

Members of the public, community councils, schools and voluntary organisations are encouraged to join the big ‘Spring Clean’ event to help clean up communities.

Organised by Keep Wales Tidy, the event will take place from Wednesday, March 1st to Sunday, March 5th, and involves a number of local authorities across Wales.

The campaign is part of the Great British Spring Clean which is supported by a number of organisations from across the private, public and charity sectors.

Cllr David A Bithell, Lead Member for Environment and Transport, said: “I encourage anyone with an interest in taking pride in our environment and the appearance of our communities to take part in this event.

“I am especially keen to extend the invite to all of our schools and Community Councils, as this promises to be an engaging event and their support would be welcome.

“Environment Services at Wrexham Council will be supporting Spring Clean Cymru events in the county borough by arranging to pick up rubbish bags as events such as these are very much linked to our Council Plan.”

He added: “We want Wrexham to be an environmentally responsible place, and we want to see communities with sustainable and attractive settlements, neighbourhoods and buildings.”

“We’re eager to see as little litter in Wrexham as possible, and invite anyone who might be interested to join Keep Wales Tidy and the big Spring Clean Cymru. Kingdom enforcement are also on board and will be continuing their clamp down on dog fouling as part of the Spring Clean.”

Community Councils, voluntary groups etc., are asked to email [email protected] for further information about bag pick up.
