Be a litter hero and keep Cherwell tidy
19/03/2025
The Great British Spring Clean is underway
We’re being encouraged to be litter heroes and help keep the Cherwell district clean this spring.
The good weather has arrived in time for the Great British Spring Clean, which started last Friday and runs until April 22.
Whether it is getting involved in a community tidy up or using the litter bins in our towns and villages, every action can help make a difference.
Councillor Ian Middleton is the Portfolio Holder for Neighbourhood Services at Cherwell District Council. He said: “I am proud to call our beautiful district of Cherwell home. One way I show my love for this special place is by making sure I am disposing of any litter responsibly.
“Littering may seem like a small, meaningless action but small actions add up to big consequences. Littering harms our environment, health, and quality of life and causes a blight on our beautiful part of the world.
“I am calling on everyone to choose to be part of the solution, not the problem. You can do this by joining us in the Great British Spring Clean. It is a brilliant initiative and free to take part – whether you volunteer your time with a local group to go litter picking or commit to putting your rubbish in the bin or taking it home, every bit helps to make the district cleaner.”
