Join the BIG Spring Clean!
Please register your support , to show people that you care about our fantastic environment and register your clean up results here.
Our beautiful green countryside and towns are slowly turning into a rubbish dump!
Our footpaths are strewn with chewing gum, dog fouling and fag ends; our roads are littered with fast food chucked out of cars; our buildings are disfigured with graffiti and fly-posting. Our stunning landscapes are drowning in litter.
Do you care?
It costs a staggering £34,000,000 a year just to keep our streets clean: what a terrible waste. It's disgusting. You know it, we all know it.
Of course you care!
So what can you personally do to help? Something simple and with minimum hassle! Everyone can make a difference!
TIDY Northern Ireland is organising the BIG Spring Clean 2012 throughout the entire month of April and we need you to get involved and join us in our campaign to TIDY Northern Ireland. You can then join an event during The BIG Spring Clean or even organise your own local clean up. In the coming weeks and months we will be promoting events and competitions and will be detailing how you can get the bags, gloves, litter pickers and more for your BIG Spring Clean.
Whether you are an individual, a family, group, sports club, church, school or business - whoever you are - let's work together to clean up the places where we live and keep Northern Ireland Tidy! You can resister NOW!!
Launching the BIG Spring Clean campaign are (from left) Belfast Telegraph editor Mike Gilson, Leslie Murray, Chair of TIDY Northern Ireland, Minister for the Environment Edwin Poots and Patricia Magee, Campaign Officer TIDY Northern Ireland.
The BIG Spring Clean is being funded by the DOE's Rethink Waste Programme and has a growing number of other important partners including all councils, the RSPB (biodiversity partner), Conservation Volunteers (community partner), Business in the Community (business partner) and the National Trust (heritage partner), as well as sporting associations.
Edwin Poots, Environment Minister said "The success of last years BIG SPRING CLEAN has shown that the people of Northern Ireland care about where they live and take a lot of pride in their local environment. By supporting TIDY Northern Ireland in such an active and positive way we can all make a difference, no matter how small, to protect and improve our environment and help make Northern Ireland a better place to live, work and invest."
