BMC has partnered with the Youth Hostels Association to provide over 50 of our Hills 2 Oceans litter picking kits to hostels throughout England and Wales. The kits provide micro-volunteering litter picking opportunities to YHA residents across the country; the YHA will even responsibly dispose of the litter for you!
In addition, YHA is hosting a number of volunteering events on Monday 8th May as part of The Big Help Out, one of the centrepieces of the celebrations planned for the Coronation of His Majesty The King and Her Majesty The Queen Consort. The self-led events are free to join and are designed to encourage people of all ages to try volunteering, providing opportunities for people to make a difference in communities across the UK.
BMC Litter Picking Kits are available at participating YHA hostels:
Ambleside, Berwick, Borrowdale, Castleton, Coalport, Coniston, Conwy, Dartmoor, Dufton, Hartington, Hathersage, Haworth, Keswick, London Central, National Forest, New Forest, Okehampton, Port Eynon, Sheringham, Snowdon Llanberis, South Downs, St Briavels, Wasdale, Whitby, York
Reserve a kit or book a place on one of the organised Big Help Out events via the YHA Volunteer website.
BMC H2O Litter Picking Kits #hills2oceans
In 2022 we provided 400 litter pickers, filled 2000 bin bags and held over 50 clean up events with the removal of LOTS of rubbish! The H2O litter picking kits were provided free of charge to BMC members across the country, so if you or your organisation received one, this is your reminder to dig it out and take it on your next trip to the crag or walk in the hills and help clean up along the way.
If you don’t have a litter picking pack and would like to buy one, you can order a biodegradable litter picker, or a pack including biodegradable litter sacks and limited edition organic cotton Hills 2 Oceans t-shirt from the BMC Shop.
Join online today by Direct Debit and save 25% on your first year's membership.
