Warrington-based developer David Wilson Homes North West has teamed up with CleanupUK to go litter picking as part of the ‘Barratt Redrow Cleanup’.
The Barratt Foundation – which is a charity run by Barratt Redrow Plc, the parent company of David Wilson Homes – partnered with Cleanup UK to encourage its regional teams to unite and take part in a spring tidy up around where they work and live.
In 2024, a survey by Keep Britain Tidy revealed a stark reality about litter in England, with less than 10% of locations being litter-free. Litter anxiety remains widespread, with over 77% of people believing the country’s litter problem has worsened in recent years. Furthermore, seven in 10 people now notice litter in their local area daily.
A group of staff members wat David Wilson Homes North West held their own litter pick around Birchwood to create a safer and more welcoming environment for the public.
Claire Jarvis, Managing Director at David Wilson Homes North West, said: “The Barratt Redrow Cleanup is a brilliant initiative that empowers our team members to actively contribute to creating a cleaner, greener, and healthier environment for everyone.
“I’m proud of every team member who took the time to get involved and support this important cause. Their efforts reflect our ongoing dedication as a company to environmental responsibility.”
The Barratt Redrow Cleanup aims to protect local wildlife from the harmful effects of litter and create welcoming and safer spaces for the communities that David Wilson Homes builds in.
