Poole’s Big Clean

Grab your litter picker – it’s time to empty the town of rubbish. Or at least it is for the residents of Poole, who host an annual big clean-up operated entirely by volunteers from the local community. Now, in its third year, the event aims to tackle waste and tidy up the area in time for the peak tourist season. In 2018, the event saw shop windows, store signs and gutters tidied up. As well as the collection of many bags of rubbish. The community scheme also includes dressing shop windows and making the town look as good as possible. “Our Big Clean is a great chance to get involved in prepping the town for its busy summer season,” says Justin Hundley-Appleton, Poole Business Improvement District manager. “We’d like to encourage our local businesses and levy payers to join in along the way and take pride in our surroundings – perhaps encourage a team to come along for a lunchtime litter pick, or get involved with updating your window displays and having a spring clean of the interiors.”
