Donation and fundraising

Keep Britain Tidy is an independent charity. We rely on funding from our partners and supporters to allow us to deliver our programmes and campaigns.

Young people litter-picking during the Great British Spring Clean

Whether it's corporate partners or trusts and foundations, Keep Britain Tidy is fortunate to have some amazing supporters who share our vision of a cleaner and healthy environment, rich in wildlife and valued by people who love where they live.

With their help, we are able to deliver campaigns and programmes that are making a difference in communities up and down the country, every day.

It's fantastic that players of People’s Postcode Lottery have raised funds that are going directly towards the Great British Spring Clean and are supporting the passionate Litter Heroes who are custodians of the places they live and work.

Giving time

We are also lucky enough to have thousands of volunteers who give us their time, whether that is as a Litter Hero or as a volunteer judge for our Green Flag Award and Blue Flag programmes.

Giving money

We also have people who, very generously, fundraise for us or make donations.

We could not do what we do, or deliver campaigns like the Great British Spring Clean, without the support of our funders and donors and we would like to thank every single one of them.

"She dreamed of a world without litter, something she repeated often, when unfortunately, more rubbish was found... As our time litter-picking carried on, Matilda’s passion for the environment increased and she began to learn all about nature, specifically bees. She loved finding out all about bees, and loved to share the facts she discovered with friends and family."

"We would like to say a massive thank you to players of People’s Postcode Lottery for this fabulous boost for our charity. Caring for the environment on our own doorsteps means so much to us all. Whatever your postcode, having great public spaces to work, live and play in is so important. We want a cleaner, greener and happier country to pass on to our children, and we are so delighted that players of People's Postcode Lottery are supporting us in reaching this goal."

Allison Ogden-Newton OBE, CEO, Keep Britain Tidy

“Never underestimate the ripple effect of your actions. What might seem like a quiet solo effort can influence attitudes, build movements, and create cleaner, kinder communities. Start small but stay consistent. It’s not about perfection, it’s about persistence. Don’t be discouraged by the scale of the problem; every piece of litter picked is a piece that won’t harm wildlife or pollute our communities.”

Emdad Rahman, Litter Heroes Ambassador

“When I see footage of birds feeding chicks pieces of plastic or coral reefs bleached white, turtles, dolphins [...] entangled in rope and net I feel that every single piece of litter I pick up may save one of those creatures from harm. That’s what keeps me going. You are making a difference, every one of you. The influence you have will ripple out to others, often unknown to you. You are making a difference, a change for good.”
