Keep Boro Tidy Community Litter Pick As a Do Good, Feel Good event, come and join us to give back to our community.

What You'll Do: 

Building on the success of the last litter pick, we would love to do this again! 

 

The hard working crews at Middlesbrough Council keep the town clean and tidy all year round but are asking for a little bit of help in doing so. 

 

On Thursday 25th June, we will meet at the Student Life Building at 12:30pm and walk over to Newport Community Hub. The litter pick will be between 1-2pm. All gloves, pickers and bags will be provided. Please wear suitable footwear and weather appropriate clothing. We will then join a team of volunteers and help to "Keep Boro Tidy!" 

Why You'll Love It: 
The sense of community from getting together with others for a single litter pick can boost your mood significantly, as can seeing the results of your actions and knowing you have helped tidy the local area. Passers-by will often give you a nod or a smile of appreciation or even strike up a conversation.    You will meet the volunteering team at the University and fellow volunteers who are all like minded and what to give something back to the community. 
What You'll Learn: 
You will learn about your local area and ways in which you can improve the space around you.    A clean, tidy environment can also enhance a sense of pride and encourage further positive actions.
What We're Looking For: 
Volunteers who are wanting to make a difference and give something back. Volunteers who want to help the residents of Middlesbrough, businesses and the community. Together, we can all help to #KeepBoroTidy!
