Residents, community groups and schools are being encouraged to get involved in the Big Spring Clean campaign as it returns to County Durham for the 5th time. After its roaring success last year which saw 1,700 volunteers spend 3,000 hours collecting 1,200 bags of rubbish, the initiative is back to urge more volunteers to sign up to clear areas of strewn rubbish. “Litter picking and rubbish removal makes a huge difference to the environment and helps us achieve our aim of making County Durham a safer, cleaner and greener place for all.”
