WHAT’S IT ALL ABOUT?
Now in its tenth year, the Great British Spring Clean takes place from 21 March – 6 April, 2025. During the campaign members of the great British public join a range of partners – from businesses, big and small, to community groups, councils and politicians – coming together as a network of #LitterHeroes to tidy up the places that we love. Last year, people up and down the country pledged to clean up more than 425,000 bags of litter, collecting and recycling harmful rubbish from our streets, parks, beaches, and other public spaces. It’s a landmark year for Keep Britain Tidy as we mark our tenth Great British Spring Clean in 2025, so we’d love you to help us to beat that total! This year, our message is simple – we want to encourage pride in communities during the Great British Spring Clean and beyond. Last year, 74% of participants who completed our post-campaign survey told us they would encourage other people they know or meet to litter-pick.
visit keepbritaintidy.org and pledge to pick up a bag – or more – when pledges open on 14 February! #GBSpringClean #LitterHeroes #LOVEWHEREYOULIVE
