This location has been chosen because we started our group by litter picking on The Embankment five years ago, but that’s flooded so we will combine tidying up Castlefields too. We have tidied up this area before, but unfortunately due to being busy over the holidays there’s a lot to do. It could be cold, so free refreshments including tea and coffee will be available.

To help us and keep us safe at this and future litter picks, Wellingborough Eco Group have purchased some litter pickers, hi-vis vests and safety equipment including road signs, so everything is provided but please bring your own gloves if you can. Join in, bring your friends and family, ALL WELCOME!

The Great British Spring Clean

TOWN CENTRE – SATURDAY 23rd MARCH 10-12

Wellingborough Town Council are joining Wellingborough Eco Group and Wellie Wombles again on our biggest litter pick of the year!

On the last Saturday of every month, Wellingborough Eco Group normally carries out a two hour tidy up with Wellie Wombles and numerous volunteers. This year we are returning to where we held this special litter pick last year a week earlier due to Easter, on Saturday 23rd March.

Do join us and Wellingborough Town Council for The Great British Spring Clean! This takes place on Saturday (23rd March) and we are litter picking the town centre!

We will set up a recycling station on Market Street from 9:30 to litter pick between 10am-12 midday. We have litter picking equipment, so everything apart from gloves is provided. North Northants Council will take away the litter we pick. As you can see by the map, we are also looking to tidy up Croyland Gardens and the streets surrounding the Town Centre, so there’s plenty to do and safe spaces for families to litter pick too!

Last year’s joint Great British Spring Clean litter pick was a huge success!

NEW – This year we are holding our first ever Heaviest Bag Competition.

It’s really simple, fill your bag with rubbish and we will weigh it and the winner gets a ‘Good Egg’ from Co-op Member Pioneer Wellingborough, Rushden and Higham Ferrers.
