Join the #LunchtimeLitterPick

To mark the upcoming Keep Britain Tidy Great British Spring Clean 2022 we’re calling upon local businesses, schools, families and community groups to get involved and join our Lunchtime Litter Pick campaign.

We’re encouraging people to take a lunch break out in the fresh air and help keep our beautiful town litter free for all to enjoy!

Please ensure before you undertake any litter pick, you read the Clean-up preparation & Safety guidelines outlined by Keep Britain Tidy.

 

When?

The #GBSpringClean is taking place between 25th March – 10th April. However, we encourage litter picking at any time of year.

 

How do I get involved?

A local business:
If you are a local business, Harrogate Spring will lend you up to six litter picking tools for the duration of the Great British Spring Clean for staff to use. The business will require a Public Liability Insurance Certificate to qualify and must collect & return from central Harrogate. Register your interest HERE.

An Individual, family or community group:
Join one of the litter picking events being held by the Harrogate Borough Council. These will be taking place at:

  • Oak Beck Park, Harrogate on Friday 18th March (10am – 1pm)
  • Bilton Cycleway, Harrogate on Friday 8th April (10am – 4pm)

For further information and to sign up, email: community@harrogate.gov.uk.  

If you’re not local to the Harrogate District, contact your local Council and ask about any organised litter picks taking place in your area.

What should I collect?

When out litter picking, we recommend taking two separate bags, one for general waste and one for recyclables. If you’re in a group, ask each person to collect a different type of recyclable. Find out what items are recycled in the Harrogate District?

We want all our bottles to be recycled! Harrogate Spring bottles are 100% recyclable including the bottle, label and cap! Remember to keep the cap on when recycling. Our bottle is designed to be easily crushed so you can shrink down nice and small and take to a recycling bin. Simply, Twist it. Cap it. Recycle it.
