Histon & Impington Litter Pickers

Organisation

Histon & Impington Litter-picking Group (HILP) does exactly what its name implies – members pick up litter in the area they have agreed as ‘their patch’ – each covering streets and/or green areas in Histon and Impington. Many volunteers pick their patches as frequently as they can or feel the need, and then join in concerted efforts every quarter, which are called Big Tidy Up events (BTUs).
