Now in its 11th year, Keep Britain Tidy’s mass litter-picking campaign, the Great British Spring Clean, is back.
Last year people up and down the country came together to clean up nearly half a million bags of litter and show they love where they live. 
The nationwide event, from 13 to 29 March, aims to unite people across the country, from individual Litter Heroes to families, schools, groups of friends, businesses, community groups and local authorities by encouraging them to join forces to clean up our streets, parks, beaches and other public spaces.
The charity asked participants how they felt after taking part in last year’s Great British Spring Clean, with 95 per cent agreeing they feel that they made a difference to their local area.
This year, Keep Britain Tidy wants to encourage everybody to pick a bag or more of litter. Visit https://www.keepbritaintidy.org/our-work/eliminating-litter/great-british-spring-clean to make a pledge online.
