Local volunteers will carry out a ‘spring clean’ of the city during March and April.
Volunteers in action in the Foxwood Park earlier in the year
The spring clean will consist of various tasks, such as litter clearance, edging off grass verges, cutting back over grown vegetation and fence repairs.
From 24 – 30 March the team will be focusing on the Dringhouses and Woodthorpe ward, where they will be looking to make a difference to Chapman’s Pond and Foxwood Park making site improvements with help from Bootham School and local groups on March 26.
The Friends of Acomb Wood invite people to help plant new trees on March 27.
Volunteers are being called upon to help spruce up Nelsons Lane play are on March 25.
York residents will also have the opportunity to nominate communal spaces for the team to spruce up and help make a smarter York.
This can be done by going to https://www.york.gov.uk/springclean and adding a new request. Residents and businesses can also volunteer to carry out tasks in their local area.
