StreetScene in the community
National Spring Clean is
an annual ENCAMS (formerly Tidy Britain Group) initiative and
Eastleigh Borough Council has supported it for over 10 years.
Last year's event also raised £172.50 which was donated to the
Royal National Lifeboat Association which was nominated by the
Mercury Area Residents' Association.
The event is held
throughout April and aims to encourage individuals, community
groups, Parish & Town councils to do their bit for the
environment. All you need to do is decide what, when and where you
are going to clean up and contact the Council to register your
event.
The Council as usual will
be supplying collection sacks; plastic gloves and we will dispose
of your rubbish for you. We will once again be sponsoring the
number of bags of litter collected and this money will be donated
to a charity nominated by one of the participating groups. Here is
how you can help us:
- Dispose of your litter and chewing gum
responsibly
- Use the free HWRCs (Household Waste Recycling
Centres)
- Do not leave your dog's mess for others
to clean up
- Do not fly post. It is illegal and
untidy!
- Do not park your car in a location you want us to
clean
- Get involved in our Community Clear Ups
- Report any StreetScene issues to us straight away by
telephone or online
