We are very excited to be joining other local hubs and groups by becoming a Clean Up Hub in Dane Valley. We have all seen litter on our daily walks, on our way to work, school or simply in our local parks and playgrounds. We often overlook the power of small, local actions, this includes activities like picking up litter, at the gardens we now have all the tools needed to make this accessible for us all to make a significant impact.
How does this work?
We have litter-picking equipment available to lend out at the Community Garden, the equipment we have available includes: hoops, gloves, litter pickers, and hi-vis bibs. They are available to collect for FREE during our below opening hours. Please do always remember to return these items to us the same day.
How can I get involved?
Get in touch or just turn up during our opening hours! Our hope and goal is to encourage people to get out and get active litter picking not just in the gardens but across the surrounding area to improve our local environment for all.
When are you open to collect the equipment?
We are open during the following times:
• Thursdays & Fridays, 11am-1pm
• Saturdays, 1pm-3pm
• First Sunday of the month, 10am-2pm
Please remember to return your collected rubbish and equipment to us the same day.
What will you do with the collected rubbish?
We will first weigh each bag to determine how much has been collected, which we will upload to the Clean Up Uk website, we will then recycle as much of the rubbish as possible.
Are there any other hubs, we don’t live close to the gardens?
