Keep British Spring Clean 2021
LITTER PICKERS BE READY
The Rotary Club of the Studios of Elstree & Borehamwood supported the "GREAT BRITISH SPRING CLEAN" on Saturday May 29th, 2021 to improve the streets and parks of our local community. This event is organised every year by Keep Britain Tidy (KBT) and will take place from May 28th to June 13th, 2021 to pick up litter across Britain. In the past twelve months our outdoor spaces have mattered to us more than ever before and this is a way to show respect for those special places that have helped us through the lock-down period.
See below images of club members and friends helping collect litter around Sterling Way in Borehamwood.

1. Please take part by pledging to KBT as much time as you can dedicate during the above period - to pick litter in our area.
2. Please refer to the website keepbritaintidy.org/get-involved/support-our-campaigns/great-british-spring-clean.
3. Please report back to KBT with how much time you actually spent and optionally you can provide pictures of your efforts, the area before and after your cleaning, and/or the many bags filled! Feel free to let our Rotary Club know too, with pictures, of what you have achieved as we will be reporting back through local papers on the event.
4. Please undertake your picking safely (in particular following current COVID-19 guidelines) and you can find details, together with litter picking equipment, at www.keepbritaintidy.org.
5. We are hoping that schools will take part in this event and pledge as a group to promote ecology among our young people to keep their future world clean. Our Rotary Club will be awarding certificates for primary schools to recognise our "litter heroes". We would encourage schools to become "Eco-Schools" through KBT and proudly display their green flag for backing a better future for the environment.
