Our group is based at Langworthy Cornerstone Volunteer Centre and we call ourselves "Clean Up Salford" because that's exactly what we like to do.
Not only do we litter pick as our main activity, we also enjoy undertaking other outside tasks like cleaning & gardening in public areas and of course, enjoying a brew & eating cake as our reward after.
We also encourage other residents to team up and host events in problem areas that encourage them to litter pick regularly with our help.
Led by a passionate team of local residents, together with your help, we hope to transform our city so it can shine like Salford truly deserves.
If you would like to join us at events, volunteer regularly or contribute by donating, then please see our Link Tree website featured below for all our contact details.
Andy S solo picked along South Langworthy Rd & Some of Broadway.
Took considerably longer to complete as a whole book of single raffle tickets were strewn along one side and Andy diligently took the time to get them all.
Large gas cylinder buried in the ground he couldn't dig out so it's been noted for a return visit to remove it.

3 of us picked some of Weaste & Langworthy areas for an hour today attending a weekly litter pick held by Inspiring Communities Together, a local charity.
Was pleased to see an area we campaigned for to have cleared of fly tipping resolved as it was a public safety risk of huge concern to our group and the local residents having to live with it for a number of years.
New section of Liverpool St tackled later in the day where Andy S cleared out almost 2 bags of litter from behind a single bus stop not pictured here and another 7 bags of street litter to the 5 collected earlier.
