A great place to live, work and play…
We strongly believe that everyone deserves to live, work and play in a place free of litter. It improves the well-being of all and helps to engender pride in local communities. Unfortunately, our litter problem is caused by a minority of people who think it acceptable to drop their drink can or crisp packet or dump their rubbish for someone else to clear up.
Our group, The Northants Litter Wombles (named after the famous TV programme) is a group of ordinary people doing the extraordinary every day who say “enough is enough” and take action to clean up our towns and countryside for the benefit of all.
We work through our affiliated groups and take direct action by litter picking, we educate through our school’s programme and we raise awareness by promoting our work to encourage others to help out. Come and join us in the war against litter. After all the only cure is YOU!
We are attracting a lot of new members which is fab.
We have lots of useful information available here for download
