Reading Adopt Your Street is a voluntary scheme to help residents and businesses keep their streets or local areas clean, tidy and free from litter.
If you can spare an hour or two a month to clean up your street it can make a real difference and make you proud of where you live and work.
We can provide you with litter pickers, gloves, bags and hi-vis jackets to get you started with the scheme. You choose the area and how often you’d like to volunteer.
