I’m beyond excited to share that Little Litter Warriors has been selected as a finalist for the Community Involvement Award!
Seeing Little Litter Warriors recognised for the passion, action, and commitment to making a real difference across Worcestershire communities is incredibly rewarding.
The programme has now engaged 121 schools across Worcestershire and the West Midlands, with many community groups — including Scouting and Girlguiding — actively involved throughout the year. By March, the programme will have reached 30,000 children, all of whom have taken part in litter-pick workshops and hands-on environmental learning.
A huge thank you to Wychavon, Malvern Hills, and Wyre Forest District Councils for championing anti-litter education and supporting Karen’s passion to make this work happen.

This is brilliant citizen science opportunity for a Cub Scout Pack, Scout Troop or Exploer Scout Unit. Do let me know if you get involved as it will creat a really strong PR opportunity that we can help you share. wwf.org.uk/learn/walrus-from…
