Confirmation of your request to volunteer as a litter picker

Thank you for volunteering

You will receive an email from us confirming that your form has been successfully submitted.

Thank you for volunteering to litter pick in Hinckley & Bosworth Borough, whether you are part of a group or as an individual. The role you are playing in keeping our towns and villages tidy and litter-free is hugely appreciated, not only by the borough council, but by your neighbours and our communities.

What happens next?

We will contact you within 10 working days and deliver your equipment.

It is important that you keep yourself safe while litter picking. Before you complete a litter pick please read our guidance for volunteer litter pickers

Registering your litter pick and disposing of litter

We want to support your litter pick and work with you to ensure the litter collected can be disposed of properly. Wherever possible we encourage you to take the rubbish you collect home with you and put it in your black bin. If you can safely separate out recyclable materials and put these into your recycling bin this is even better.

If you as an individual (or as part of group) are planning a bigger litter pick that is likely to result in numerous bags of rubbish that you won’t be able to fit into your black bins, please contact us about your litter pick before you start using the contact form below.

You can also use our contact form to tell us when the litter is ready to be collected, to request more equipment, tell us about a future litter pick event you would like to arrange or send a message to our Clean Neighbourhoods team:
