Be part of something BIG!
What do you think when you see litter and rubbish just dumped on the street, your local park or playground, or on the beach? Do you want to do something about it? Here at TIDY Northern Ireland we’re working really hard to try to reduce the amount of litter that is dropped and we need your help!
If you’d like to do something positive next Spring to help improve your local environment and local community then why not get involved in the BIG Spring Clean 2014?
The BIG Spring Clean is Northern Ireland’s largest volunteering campaign aimed at cleaning up local areas and improving our environment. This year over 50,000 people got involved and we’re hoping to double that next year.
It’s easy to be part of the BIG Spring Clean by organising your own clean up event between February – April 2014. When you register we will send you a FREE Clean Up Kit and when you return to the website to tell us how you got on, you will be entered into a prize draw. It doesn’t matter how small or big your event is and you can choose where and when it takes place.
For more information, to register your event for the BIG Spring Clean 2014 and see our prize draw details please visit: www.bigspringcleanni.org , follow us on Facebook and Twitter or contact TIDY Northern Ireland on 028 9073 6920.
General information about the BIG Spring Clean
The BIG Spring Clean is TIDY Northern Ireland’s flagship volunteering and awareness raising campaign aimed at promoting volunteering opportunities for groups, businesses and individuals.
The campaign supports local community clean-ups across all 26 council areas in Northern Ireland. It is Northern Ireland’s fastest growing community clean-up volunteering campaign and is open to people and groups from all communities wishing to rid their streets of litter and discarded rubbish.
The campaign is supported by all 26 Councils and the DOE. Our media partner is The Belfast Telegraph so if you have a newsworthy angle for your clean up event please let us know.
BIG Spring Clean 2013 mobilised over 50,000 volunteers in clean up events across Northern Ireland, double the number of last year and removed the same weight in rubbish as 26 adult African elephants.
The BIG Spring Clean website (www.bigspringcleanni.org) provides an online network where volunteers can register their clean-up events, get useful information and find out about other events in their area.
