There are part-time roles available with community litter picking charity CleanupUK, who need help in their mission to engage people in looking after their local environment.   

If you have a few hours a week to spend encouraging local communities and organisations to litter pick, then this could really suit you.

• One role covering: Salford and Manchester   
• £16.37 per hour
• Part-time (10-20 hours per month)

Cleanup hubs are spaces to store equipment for individuals and groups in the community to use. By hosting this equipment and loaning it out, Cleanup Hubs are championing volunteering in the community and promoting litter picking. 

CleanupUK provides equipment and promotional support to help Cleanup Hubs get started with litter picking and engaging local people.   

Cleanup Champions work closely with Cleanup Hubs and other partner organisations to encourage more people to get involved in litter picking locally. 

We are keen to find cheerful people, with a sense of fun, who care about the environment and enjoy chatting to people of all backgrounds.

Key Tasks include:   

• Liaising with Cleanup Hubs and local communities. 
• Hosting and attending events and reporting back to CleanpUK’s Operational Team.  
• Helping to keep active records of the litter picking that is taking place. This includes: ensuring litter picking statistics are being logged online by hubs, taking photos for our social media channels, and making notes on our shared database.
• Promoting the project locally, both on the ground and online.  
• Online research to help us to identify new community partners, and attending online or face to face meetings with new prospective partners.
• Attending monthly team meetings online, and an annual face to face day-long team meeting.
