Great British Spring Clean, get involved
Posted on in Business News
This year's Great British Spring Clean takes place from the 22nd of March - 23rd of April!
Last year, over 370,000 people collected 650,000 bags of rubbish across Great Britain.
#GBSpringClean is aiming to inspire over 500,000 people to join forces - in partnership with community organisations, businesses and the government - to clean up the streets and recycle as much as possible.
The Association of Convenience Stores (ACS) is encouraging as many retailers to get involved.
James Lowman, ACS chief executive, said:
"Ensuring that our high streets and local neighbourhoods are free of litter encourages community activity and strengthens town centres. Research from our 2018 Local Shop Report found that 81% of independent retailers were involved in some form of community activity in the past year, demonstrating the positive contribution that convenience stores make to the communities that they serve."
