Litter Picking Group

DORSET DEVILS

Dorset Devils are a group of Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole and beyond residents who volunteer their free time to clear litter from where they live as well as nearby parks and our beautiful beaches. We each look after our own patch and hope to encourage others to manage their own litter. Our voluntary group started in 2013 and we now have 1222+ like minded residents onboard and still growing.
We want Dorset to be as litter free as possible but that means everyone needs to play their part for this to happen.

Fresh air, gentle exercise guaranteed and some equipment available. Do as much or as little picking as you like and choose the time and place suitable for you, eIther on your own, with someone else or with Dorset Devils living nearby. Our USP is solo or family/friends litter picking rather than group organised events or with the public.

You are welcome to join us and then you can look after your own patch, wherever and whenever it suits you. Always your choice how long you ‘devil’ around. Help make a difference where you live, play and relax.

BCP Council and BHCoastalLottery allow us to be fully equipped and help other charities and local organisations with loaned equipment and encouragement. We link up with local environmental organisations including Wimborne War on Waste, Southbourne Waste Busters and we are part of Litter Free Dorset- land, coast & sea. We are active within the community and get involved in a variety of community initiatives including activities with primary school children and scout packs. Our latest DDinitiative is supporting BCP youngsters gain their Bronze, Silver and Gold DofE through litter picking- 120+ children so far. We are more than just litter pickers as we hope to raise awareness and engage, wherever possible.

For current details of our group, view us on our new website dorsetdevils.org which has our contact details and join up tab. Also, follow us on DD Facebook and Twitter.
