Litter Picking Groups
Joining a litter picking group can be extremely rewarding and provides a great opportunity to socialise, be active and get involved with your local community.
What's it like being part of a litter picking group?
"I have been leading litter picking groups since 2016. When I first started I thought I was the only person mad enough to pick up other people's litter, but it turns out I was clearly one of many! I thoroughly enjoy our group litter picks as I thrive off being with other people and hearing what they've been doing. I'm delighted that we make such a notable difference to our area and i feel it really enhances what Solihull Council do."

Olton & Hobs Moat Literary Litter Pickers
There are 2 library based groups operating in Solihull called The Literary Litter Pickers. Meeting from Olton Library monthly on a Saturday morning and Hobs Moat Library monthly on a Tuesday morning they litter pick the local area for an hour then come back to the library for tea, coffee and biscuits. Both groups have been meeting for 8 years and have seen people come and go. It is a friendly and easy group to join. Whether you would just like to volunteer once or would like to join a regular group then you are very very welcome. Above all else they are making the world of difference to their local areas in keeping them looking litter free.

A small team of volunteers regularly litter picks communal areas collecting around 15 refuse bags per month.
We always need assistance and if you would like to volunteer and clean up an area that concerns you within Tidbury Green then please register online with our lovesolihull partners.
