#WasteWarriors Weekend

You can complete your litter pick any time over the weekend on a street or park near you! We will come together in spirit through sharing photos on social media.

About the Event (please click read more to see full details)

Every 4th weekend of the month, do your bit to care for our local environment as we join forces to collect and safely dispose of litter from Merton's streets and green spaces.

In light of the current situation*, there are two ways you can get involved in #WasteWarriors Weekends:

♻️ Organise a private group clean-up with up to five family and friends

♻️ Pledge to do your own individual litter-pick.

Remember to share photos and stories on social media to inspire others to do their bit! Use the hashtag #WasteWarriors and don't forget to tag Sustainable Merton - @SustainableMert (Twitter) / @sustainablemerton (Instagram)

* IMPORTANT - CORONAVIRUS GUIDANCE

Litter-picking can be carried out alone, in pairs or small groups of up to a maximum of six, including yourself, based on the current government guidance** for meeting with people outside of your household.

Individuals currently shielding, in ‘at risk’ groups, displaying symptoms (or in contact with those with symptoms) or have been directly advised to self-isolate SHOULD NOT litter-pick.

Before organising or participating in a clean-up event, PLEASE DOWNLOAD AND READ our guidance for litter picks during Covid-19.

**Government guidance on the lockdown may tighten or ease over time
