Streets get monster tidy-up
West End Million joined forces with Adactus Housing Group, who have properties in the area, to tidy up the streets and alleyways in and around Clarendon, Westminster, Marlborough and West End Roads over two days.
Skips were placed at the end of each road for residents to use and Adactus staff and volunteers helped out.

The cleanup was also a learning curve in preparation for a much larger event next Spring to involve even more streets in the West End.
Simon Das of the West End Million Partnership, said: “This pilot project went really well.
“We had great support from local people and the skips were obviously well used. We are looking forward to improving the event for next Spring, ensuring we can expand the project to make a bigger lasting difference to the West End.”
