Go Green Week: Give Green A Go (Volunteer Litter Pick)

Join your Community Wardens for a litter pick, to tackle rubbish left on the streets of Selly Oak. We want students, residents and everyone else who cares about the local area to come together to make Selly a little cleaner, a greener and a whole lot nicer.

It’s not the most glamorous task, but someone’s got to do it! We aim to inspire all students, permanent residents and staff members to help improve the environment on their doorstep.

You may think that anything to do with litter can’t be fun, but a litter pick can be a fun and rewarding way of helping your community. Not only does a litter pick help make Selly Oak a cleaner place to live it also helps you meet new people, work off some extra calories ready for summer (did you know an average litter pick can help you burn off 232 calories!), and get some great work experience for your CV.
