AN environmental charity is urging residents to help ‘spring clean’ Scotland’s streets.

As part of its annual campaign, Keep Scotland Beautiful is calling on people from Renfrewshire and East Renfrewshire to support communities across the country to remove litter from their local area.

Throughout April and May, the charity is encouraging residents, businesses, schools and community groups to arrange their own clean-up events to remove rubbish from streets, parks and public areas.

Derek Robertson, Chief Executive of Keep Scotland Beautiful, said: “Keep Scotland Beautiful is calling for people across the country to take part in our annual Spring Clean campaign.

“Every April and May thousands of volunteers take to the streets and remove a significant amount of litter from their local communities.

“We are very proud of everyone’s hard work and hope that Renfrewshire residents will take part - helping to make 2019 the most successful Spring Clean campaign to date.”
