I was so pleased to be joined by Chairman of the Council, Cllr Pat Murray. Pat said “TS Sports Junior Football Club were very keen to take part. It’s great to see young people who are prepared to give up their Saturday morning to make a real difference to their community.”
The team have been sponsored by family and friends. The money they raise will be donated back to the football club to buy uniforms and equipment. Meeting the organisers of the football club, the Mums and Dads was great. TS Sports Junior Football Club’s Justin Fuller, who has organised the litter pick, said “The team practice at Newhall Park and the litter pick is a great chance for us to give something back to the community.
Our Council is encouraging all residents, schools and voluntary groups to get involved with the Cleaner South Derbyshire Campaign. If you spot any problems with littering, dog fouling or fly tipping, call the Summer Hotspots line on 0800 587 2349.
If you would like to organise your own litter pick, the Council can provide you with a Blitz Kit containing metal litter pickers, high visibility vests, gloves and bags. For more information, phone the Council’s Customer Services on 01283 595795 or go to

“I hope our event encourages people to get out and use their local parks more or even organise a litter pick themselves.”
