Urban Wombles

Urban Wombles brings people together to give back through organised litter picking across local neighbourhoods. It is ideal for anyone looking for a new challenge, a sense of purpose, or a practical way to make a visible difference. Connecting with like-minded people while helping to keep communities clean means everyone benefits. And yes, doing good really does feel good!

Doing good for your community, together.

Urban Wombles offers structured, supported volunteering opportunities focused on improving local environments. Designated group facilitators ensure volunteers have the equipment and guidance needed to take part safely, with trained staff adapting tasks to suit individual abilities.Taking part can help build routine, confidence, and a stronger sense of belonging.

The project is also a great way to meet others, form friendships, and reconnect with the community. For many, Urban Wombles becomes a first step towards wider involvement in other Urban Health UK projects and opportunities.

We are looking for volunteers across Merseyside. If you would like to join Urban Wombles or find out more, please complete a referral form and a member of the team will be in touch.
