We are a new Community Action Group and we need your help to purchase a van so we can transport our cleaning equipment and litter picking equipment to different areas throughout the Barrow Borough.

The aim of our group is to work with local residents to help make Furness a cleaner, greener and safer place to live, work and visit.

We will be targeting littering, graffiti, weeds and fly-tipping.

The equipment we need to transport includes large water tanks, pressure washers, generators, roadsweeper, etc. A large van is vital to help us get out and about in the community more.

Our first 2 litter picking events have removed 60+ large black bags of rubbish, along with hoovers, bikes, and other items. We have several other events planned, more details can be found on our Facebook page.
