Big Green Week - Campaigning against rubbish in the countryside was part of CPRE’s opening manifesto back in 1926.
Throughout the early 20th century, CPRE played an active role in the growing campaign against litter: from organising local volunteer clean-ups and instigating the first Countryside Code of Conduct upheld by litter wardens, to galvanising support for the first ‘Keep Britain Tidy’ campaign, ahead of the Festival of Britain in 1951.

Dunstable Wombles help keep Dunstable clean with regular litter picks. They focus on green spaces such as Green Lanes, Dunstable Downs and Blow’s Downs.
