Communities come together to clean up streets

Communities are coming together soon to help keep streets, parks and open spaces in Newcastle-under-Lyme clean, green and welcoming for everyone.

All 44 councillors at Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough Council are being invited to co-ordinate litter-picking events in their wards on Saturday, in a borough-wide display of civic pride.

The clean-up initiative will see residents and councillors tackle litter and improve neighbourhoods in up to 21 different areas.
