Action days - Cleaner, Greener, Safer

Our Cleaner, Greener, Safer Action Days bring communities and services together to make a visible, lasting difference to local neighbourhoods.

Through coordinated efforts such as targeted litter picking, graffiti removal, and tackling fly-tipping hotspots, we work alongside enforcement teams and street cleansing contractors to restore pride in our public spaces. 

These proactive days are designed not only to improve the look and safety of our environment but also to deter future issues through partnership working, visibility, and community engagement.
