Join us for a family friendly community litter pick at Bancroft Roman Villa on Wednesday 26th August at 11am. This is a fantastic opportunity to arrive early for Parkland Play and to explore the local area all the while making a difference in your local area.

You'll help us keep Milton Keynes clean and green, and connect with fellow community members.

Whether you’re looking to support your local environment, meet like-minded people, or simply spend some time outdoors, this event is a fun and rewarding way to get involved.

Meeting point: Bancroft Park Roman Villa Car park

This is a staff-led, family-friendly event. All participants will be provided with litter pickers, gloves, hoops and bin bags. Our friendly team will give a brief safety talk and instructions before you start. You’ll then be guided around the designated area to help remove litter and dispose of it safely.
