"You can make a difference by joining the neighbourhood watch." This year there will be 60 'spring cleans' with the next litter pick taking place on Saturday, June 12. Councillor Linda Smith said: “It’s wonderful to see community-spirited members of the public come forward to organise litter picking. "I’ve joined in myself previously and it can be a very rewarding activity. "Oxford Direct Services works hard and does a good job keeping our streets and green spaces tidy but the volume of litter can sometimes be overwhelming, especially when the weather is good. "Everyone needs to play their part and take their litter home for waste disposal or recycling.”
