East Hampshire Norse will have more road sweepers and clean-up crews from 17-31 March thanks to funding from the Grow Up! Programme.

Funding through the Grow Up! Programme is being used by East Hampshire Norse to provide more boots on the ground cleaning up litter, revitalising street planters, sweeping roads and cutting back vegetation across the district.

This boost to resources will help get the areas we’re responsible for up to a higher standard which will be easier to maintain throughout the year.

Councillor Richard Millard, Leader of East Hampshire District Council, said:

“This time of year is a great opportunity to bring in extra resources to make sure that East Hampshire’s environment is as beautiful as it can be.

“I’m pleased that we can use this funding through Grow Up to make a difference in the local area and support the large number of local residents and community groups that are committed to keeping litter off our streets.”

We’ll be posting on our social media channels during the spring clean to show you what the team has been up to.
