Queens Park – Clean Up
Join the Don Catchment Rivers Trust as we team up with Transition Chesterfield to remove litter from the paths around Queens Park and nearby areas. On these sessions, we sort our litter into categories so we can gather data about what our biggest polluters are.
When: Thursday 13th August 2026, 10am – 11:30am
Where: Meeting at the side of the cricket pavillion in Queens Park.

PARKING – there is paid parking in the car park on Boythorpe Avenue or free on street parking on Baden Powell Road.
What to bring: We provide all of the equipment on the day however please wear suitable clothing for outdoor work including sturdy shoes or boots and long trousers.
What to expect: We will be walking along paved footpaths, collecting litter in categories and eventually bringing it back into Queens Park. Most of this is on paved paths but there may be some shrubs to pick litter out of too. There will be free refreshments and biscuits at the end, provided by DCRT. There are public toilets in the park cafe.
