The charity, Keep Scotland Beautiful, is looking for thousands of volunteers in Scotland to help clean up the country.
This is the biggest mass litter picking event and everyone is invited to play their part.
#SpringCleanScotland will take place from 13 March to 24 April and the charity is looking for people all over Scotland to get involved.
Keep Scotland Beautiful’s latest litter survey, published in October 2025, revealed that 83% of people wanted more to be done to clean up and prevent litter. With seven in 10 sites having a litter presence across the country, Spring Clean is the perfect opportunity for people who want to see a difference to make a difference.
Barry Fisher, Chief Executive at Keep Scotland Beautiful, said: “#SpringCleanScotland is the largest mass litter picking event in the country. If you are one of the 67% who agree litter makes you feel embarrassed about your own neighbourhood why not get involved? Choose a location and register your event. This is the perfect opportunity to get involved and take action. We want every community in Scotland to get involved, get active and make a difference to an issue that affects everyone.
“Why not invite current or prospective MSPs along to join your clean-up and show them first-hand how much we need action to tackle this problem.
“At the end of 2025 we published our latest Scottish Litter Survey which shows people’s attitudes towards litter. We know people are worried about the danger it causes to children and animals. We know it creates a bad impression of our country for tourists.
“#SpringCleanScotland is your chance to take action. Join other like-minded people who care about keeping Scotland beautiful and let’s tackle our litter problem together.”
