Members of the public can meet at the car park in Ford End Road at 12 noon.

Councillor Yasin said: “There are plenty of litter bins throughout Queen’s Park but sadly some people persist in dropping litter and fly tipping.

“On these litter picks we can make such a difference in just a few hours – we’ve filled over twenty sacks of rubbish in just one session when we’ve done this before.”

Councillor Masud added: “Everybody is welcome, so if you can spare a bit of time come along, all the equipment will be provided.”
