Clean Cornwall Week 2nd April to 10th April (23 Mar 2011)

Saturday 2nd April sees the start of the first 'Clean Cornwall Week' for 2011 and this year also sees the scheme's 5th birthday. Clean Cornwall Week is organised by Cornwall Council's Waste and Environment Service.

Lots of individuals and community groups are already registering their events but Cornwall Council hopes that as many people and groups as possible go out and about within their community and organise a litter event. 

Organiser Stephanie Tiplady says 'it could be a litter pick, either big or small, handing out car litter bags from your local shop/post office or even a ‘rubbish’ quiz in your local pub or village hall…..entirely up to you, as long as it raises the profile of litter awareness in and around your village or town'.
