Greener Communities

Our Greener Communities team is responsible for a wide range of services such as: bereavement services, public parks and play parks maintenance, open space maintenance, the garden maintenance scheme, clean up campaigns and wildflowers. 

The service operates from two main depots based at Western Road, Kilmarnock and Thistle Park Industrial Estate, Cumnock.

To help us improve our services and better share relevant information with you, we'd appreciate your honest feedback on your experiences and knowledge.

Greener Communities supports community groups and members of the community to undertake litter picks and Clean Up campaigns, by providing Litter Picking Stations and support from the team.  The stations are fully stocked with: litter pickers, litter bags, gloves, high-visibility vests. 

Local community groups manage the litter picking equipment and storage units and new groups can request access to the equipment by emailing us. Greener Communities then uplift the bags of litter collected for recycling and disposal.  Do you know about this?
