Govanhill Litterpick – Saturday 28 September

Govanhill Monthly Litterpick (Sept) Saturday 28

Starts at 10:30am in the Govanhill Free Church

Refreshments at 12:30pm back in the church after the litterpick

The Govanhill Litterpick Group are hosting another community litterpick this Saturday from 10:30-12:30pm. Everyone is welcome to join, including families and pets.

As a community-led initiative to keep Govanhill’s streets and lanes clean, they are reliant on the efforts of volunteers each month to both organise the litterpicks and participate in them. All the extra hands they can get goes a long way to keeping our streets cleaner and raising the public conscience around littering

The group are immensely grateful to any individual, business or organisation who is able to support them; either by volunteering their free time and labour for a couple of hours every month, or by helping feed those volunteers at the end of a litterpick.

Once again they are inviting anyone in, or neighbouring, the community to join them for another litterpick at the end of this month, and are encouraging people to collect any cans and/or plastic bottles (in decent condition) that have been discarded in our streets since it proved to be a successful way of raising some funds.

The group is also calling on volunteers to join them and is asking local businesses to consider sponsoring their monthly community clean-up to help pay for equipment and refreshments needed. If any local businesses are interested in supporting the Govanhill Litter Pick group, they can contact them by email at govanhill-litter@greatergovanhill.com
