Leighton Buzzard neighbourhood gets cleaned up by volunteers

Hands-on volunteers have helped clean up a Leighton Buzzard neighbourhood.

In one day, 14 volunteers, including staff from two Central Bedfordshire Council contractors, collected 1.5 tonnes of moss, weeds, and litter.
Cllr Steven Watkins, executive member for assets, business, and housing, stated: “Council tenants pay rent, and it is critical that they understand the value of the services we provide. Clean, safe, and well-maintained estates are an important component of that. This is an excellent example of how we are listening to neighbors, taking action, and using our connections to better the neighborhoods where our tenants live.”
