Committed to a

Clean Oxford

in partnership with

118 community groups (2,000 individuals) took part in 2 hour litter picks across the city in 2011

Massive quantities of litter and scrap were cleared away

Help us keep up the momentum with a big turnout in 2012

  

Let’s keep on top of the litter that accumulates and blights our city, and continue to tackle the eyesore of grot spots

Public awareness of the litter problem is significantly jolted by seeing so many people out litter picking – and the piles of filled sacks awaiting collection

The more people that take part, the stronger our voice when campaigning for a cleaner Oxford throughout the year
