The
Parks Trust staff and volunteers are set to take part in one of the UK’s largest litter picks
by Laura Tarry
Clean for The Queen is a call for volunteers to join the
UK’s largest litter pick and help get your local area looking its very best in
the year of The Queen’s 90th birthday.
The
aim of the campaign is to attract one million people
during a special clean-up weekend on 4, 5 and 6 March 2016.
The Queen for
the Queen Campaign Director Adrian Evans said: “Our ambition is to
create a community inspired, grass-roots mass action event – one that will
become a recurring annual initiative. We feel that marking The Queen’s
90th birthday with the inaugural clean-up is a wonderful way to kick-start
it to life.
"We want to show that
millions of people in this country care passionately about the litter affecting
the nation and are prepared to get out and do something about it. Everyone in
this country will reap the benefits.”
The
Parks Trust staff and volunteers will host their litter pick on Saturday 5th March from 10am-12noon, Stanton Low Park, Milton
Keynes.
The Parks Trust Head of Community Engagement Briony Fox said: “We value our volunteers and all their hard work throughout the year. Being part of Clean for the Queen means we can encourage more people to get involved so that everyone can enjoy a cleaner place to live.”
