Love Your Neighbourhood

Communities across North West Leicestershire are invited to take part in the second annual Love Your Neighbourhood Week of Action, running from Monday 30 June – Sunday 6 July 2025 delivered by North West Leicestershire District Council (NWLDC).

Following the success of last year's event, Love Your Neighbourhood's Week of Action 2025 aims to build greener, safer, healthier, and more inclusive communities through collective action.

The event is open to everyone, including individuals, businesses and community groups so that as many people as possible can contribute to making their neighbourhoods better places to live and work.

To celebrate and track the impact of these activities, volunteers are encouraged to register their events using a simple online form. The registration process allows organisers to log their planned activities, the number of volunteers involved, and the estimated duration of their event.

To support volunteering, the following resources and grants are available:

• Residents can apply to receive free litter-picking kits by completing a quick form that can be found here.
• Constituted community groups, parish councils, schools, and other not-for-profit organisations can apply for up to five litter picking kits
• Love Your Neighbourhood Grants
  • Up to £500 for larger events that involve multiple local grou
