Volunteer litter picking · Leeds
Over 50 volunteer groups go out litter picking across the whole City of Leeds — all year round. Grab a purple bag and join them.
Wildlife so often become the victims of littered items. Let's help protect them in their natural habitats — every bag counts.
We have been an active group of volunteers for several years and have steadily grown our groups to thousands of people.
It's a great way to meet like minded people and to get some exercise while cleaning up where you live.
The purple bag
Leave it at a collection point and it gets picked up — no van, no rota, no fuss. It's the small, visible signal that somebody nearby chose to look after the place.

Tell us roughly where you are and how much time you have. Whatever time you have available, however small, will be very much appreciated.
We can provide bags and try to provide other equipment where we can, so there is nothing to buy before you start.
