Great British Spring Clean
Buckinghamshire Council supports individuals and groups who want to keep their local area clean by picking litter.
The council supplies litter pickers, bags, and advises on how best to dispose of any litter picked waste (or even collect the waste bags after your litter pick).
In March (every year) the Council goes the extra mile to support local people and keep Bucks looking beautiful. In 2026, the campaign will run from 13 to 29 March.
Keep Britain Tidy is the nation’s biggest mass action campaign. Since 2016, millions of amazing Litter Heroes have shown they love where they live by pledging to pick more than 4.5 million bags of litter. You can pledge your litter pick on the Keep Britain Tidy page.
You can also nominate a Local Litter Hero for the Great British Spring Clean Awards - to officially recognise and reward volunteers and partners taking part in the 2026 campaign (entries close in May).
