Thank you to all involved! See the offer in the post for any keen litter pickers…

This looks good…

Why not come out for a bit of a litter picking walk followed by a spot of lunch.
meet some of the toad patrol, and help keep the area litter free.

These lovely lot were out in Long Lee over the weekend litter picking on The Twines. Thanks to Friends of the Twines for organising the clean-up, and to John, Yvonne, Fulzar, Ann and Cath for their hard work. Bradford Council provided the litter pickers and purple bin bags, which it will then collect.

This is happening tomorrow if anyone fancies a workout that also benefits the environment in Riddlesden!

Check this out! A way to work off those early mince pies…

Here are the final dates and times for the one-hour tidies next week. Hopefully see you at one of them! Please note the previous post about the Spring Clean is now incorrect.

Get the FREE LitterLotto app and be in with the chance of winning cash prizes! Each time you put an item of litter into a bin and take a picture using the app you get the opportunity to win spot prizes and entry into a monthly jackpot draw. Prizes range from £5 to £10,000 and so far more than 3,000 prizes have been awarded. Bradford Council will receive data to show the number of people that are involved and the number of items binned, and says the idea is to encourage people to throw away their litter and also reward individuals and groups already doing it - like you! So what are you waiting for?!

Not Keighley East but… look at this! Great idea!

Self-service litter pick station for popular Keighley park A SELF-service litter pick station has been set up as part of an initiative to keep a popular Keighley park free of rubbish.

Another fantastic effort from River Worth Friends. Thank you!

River Worth Friends being amazing again. THANK YOU! Have a lovely Christmas, everyone!

Ok, so this is a *little* way out of Keighley East but it’s SO GOOD! The most poignant line is: “Cleaning up after football matches is an extension of basic behaviours that are taught in school, where the children clean their school classrooms and hallways.”

Isn’t it about time we made littering socially unacceptable, and tidying up after ourselves a “basic behaviour”? An ideas about how to do this?

Japan fans delay celebrations to clean up stadium Japan's fans stay behind after their team's memorable win over Germany to clean up the stadium.
