Cleaning up the world, one street at a time.
Because even the littlest hands can make the biggest difference.
It started with a simple question on a walk to school: "Why is there so much rubbish on the floor?"
That question came from a 6-year-old girl who decided she wasn't going to just wonder β she was going to do something about it. She grabbed a bag, put on her gloves, and started picking up litter from the pavement. One piece at a time.
But she didn't want to do it alone. She wanted every child in the neighbourhood, the town, the country β maybe even the world β to join in. And just like that, The Little Pickers was born.
The name? A play on "litter pickers" β because we're little, we're mighty, and we're picking up after a world that sometimes forgets to look after itself.
"If all the children pick up litter together, we can clean the whole world!"β Our Founder, age 6
Every weekend, we come together as a community. No experience needed β just a willingness to help!
Join us at a local meeting point every weekend. Bring the family β everyone is welcome, from toddlers to grandparents!
Grab a litter picker, pop on some gloves, and start cleaning! We work together street by street, making it fun with games and challenges.
Celebrate what you've achieved! See the streets looking brand new, earn your Little Picker badges, and feel proud of the difference you've made.
It really is that simple. No special skills needed β just a big heart and a pair of hands! π§€
We're brand new, but our ambitions are enormous. Here's what we're working towards!
Begin in our neighbourhood, cleaning one street every weekend. Making our own community shine first!
Invite other families and schools to join. The more Little Pickers we have, the more streets we can clean!
Inspire Little Picker groups everywhere! Every town, every city, every country β until the whole world is clean.
Families coming together, neighbours meeting neighbours, children learning the power of teamwork.
Children learn to care for their environment and understand that their actions β no matter how small β have real impact.
Every piece of litter we pick up is one less thing harming wildlife, polluting waterways, or ending up in our oceans.
There's nothing like the pride a child feels when they see a clean street and know they made it happen.
A cleaner world starts with us
We'll be organising regular weekend litter picks. Keep an eye on this space for our first official event!
The inaugural Little Pickers community litter pick. Be part of history! Date and location coming soon.
Once we're up and running, we'll have regular weekend sessions. Bring the whole family!
We'd love to team up with local schools for special litter picking events. Teachers β get in touch!
This is where we'll celebrate our amazing volunteers! Photos from our pickups will go right here.
