This week is Volunteers Week 2023, a week in which we take the time to recognise all our fantastic volunteers and your contribution to our communities. We want to thank each and every one of you who make such a difference to our city. The time and dedication you all give is truly inspiring, and we are honoured as always to work alongside you all.
Thank you to the amazing “Keep Tidy” Community groups all across the city whose actions and passion inspire and empower communities to come together and get stuck in with collective action. Thank you to our amazing LWYL Litter Champions and Litter Heroes who take part independently but inspire others to get involved too – there are now over 600 Litter Champions and over 300 Litter Heroes.
Thank you to our Big Sweepers, who in the Autumn cleared over 1500 bags of leaves from the streets. Thank you to all our Leave Only Paw Prints Champions and your four-legged friends who are leading by example and supporting your communities to take care of dog walking routes in the city. There are now over 200 of you! Thank you to all the Keep Wales Tidy Litter Champions and local organisations who make such an impact, partnering with Keep Wales Tidy initiatives to improve your local areas. And finally thank you too all the schools who have taken part in litter picking with their students in their local communities, inspiring a new generation of caring community members.
For all this activity and more, what you have contributed is incredible and you are all amazing. Every single action taken by you makes Cardiff a better place. We have put together some information about what you have achieved this year!

Our Assistant Director for Street Scene, Matt Wakelam would like to share this message with you:
“Thank you for volunteering to support ‘Love Where You Live’ across Cardiff. Working together we are able to achieve great things. Love Where You Live has shown me volunteering is not about the time but about the heart and this is why each and every volunteer is inspirational. “
We would also like to thank all the partners, volunteers and our advisory group who are working collaboratively with us to produce a Litter and Fly-tipping Prevention Plan for Cardiff for 2023-2027.
