Clean Sweep's coming to a neighbourhood near you!

What is Clean Sweep?

Clean Sweep aims to deliver targeted clean ups of grot spots across the borough. Activities are prioritised from suggestions by local people, ward councillors and front line staff familiar with your local neighbourhood.

Activities could range from clearing land of dumped rubbish or a litter-pick around a school to tackling graffiti, flyposting and dog fouling. We will work with schools and community groups for a community-led approach to raising awareness about maintaining our environment. We will also include a crackdown on thoughtless people who spoil the environment for the rest of us, with enforcement teams on the look out for litterbugs, fly-tippers and graffiti vandals.

Roll up your sleeves and get involved!

Events could range from clearing land of dumped rubbish, a litter-pick around a school, clearance of your street, to tackling graffiti, flyposting and dog fouling.

We’re also looking to work with schools and community groups to raise awareness about the state of our environment through street art, activities and music. The Better Haringey team will be working alongside you and providing equipment and expert help and advice.
