Mar 4 @ 10:15 am – 12:00 pm

Join the Great British Spring Clean campaign, Saturday 4 March 10.15 – 11.30 am

at the Highgate Society 10A South Grove, Highgate   

During the weekend of 3-5 March many people across the country will take part in the Great British Spring Clean campaign. Last year the campaign got 250,000 people outdoors, active and involved in clean up events.

The Highgate Society is organising one such event. We will supply protective gloves and rubbish bags. All we ask is that you bring yourself, some warm clothing and your enthusiasm. We will start with a short briefing at the Highgate Society 10A South Grove at 10.15 am and then leave for approximately an hour’s tidy up in and around Highgate village. Afterwards, if you have time,  we can warm up and enjoy a tea or coffee back at 10A until midday.

 

You’ll be joining an ever growing band of people who have had enough of other people’s litter, are willing to donate their time to help clear it up and want to see an end to littering. We’ll prepare a short report afterwards to highlight awareness of what we find.

 

For any questions please contact the organiser Andrew Sulston via the Highgate Society Website.
