Local Litter Pickers
- Suitable for groups, One-off volunteering
Litter isn’t nice. It spoils the places we live, work and visit. It devalues our beautiful country.
Clean Up Scotland is our campaign to tackle litter. Whether you are an individual, member of a community, school or a business, we can all work together to improve our environment.
Through Clean Up Scotland, we raise awareness of our litter problem, take action and inspire others to do the same.
We can help you to organise a litter pick, find a litter pick happening near you or nominate someone for our Clean Up Scotland Hero award. If you are a business, we can organise volunteering activities and CSR days, or you can support our campaign financially, knowing that your money will make a real difference to our environment.
Together we can make a difference.
