Love Your Neighbourhood: Beverley and Newland area next in line for a tidy-up  

Hull City Council’s Love Your Neighbourhood project has arrived in the Beverley and Newland area today (Monday 22 July).  

As part of the citywide Love Your Neighbourhood project, several streets within Hull’s Beverley and Newland Ward will undergo a comprehensive tidy-up from today until Friday 2 August, leaving streets transformed and residents with a renewed sense of pride in their community.    

Over the two-week period, the team will carry out a range of clear-up tasks, including verge cutting, grounds maintenance, and street cleaning works.      

The streets that will be included are Stanbury Road, Boulsworth Avenue, Beechcliffe Avenue, Emmott Road, Oxenhope Road, Windle Avenue, Cullingworth Avenue, Silsden Avenue, Steeton Avenue, and Denholme Avenue.     

Councillor Charles Quinn, portfolio holder for environment, said: “We are thrilled to announce that the next phase of the Love Your Neighbourhood project will take place in the Beverley and Newland area.    

“The dedicated team are ready to transform this neighbourhood, to make it a clean and welcoming place for residents to live.    

“We hope everyone in the area will reap the benefits of this wonderful project.”   

The council also wants to encourage residents to get involved with the project by helping with litter picking, and the removal of graffiti.  

To help residents get involved, the Love Your Street team can loan: adult and child sized litter pickers; hi-viz vests; graffiti removal kits; litter collection sacks; and gloves.   

Any waste that cannot go in domestic bins will be collected by the team.  

To hire equipment and to book litter collections, visit Get involved | Love your street | Hull. 

Cllr Quinn, added: “As well as caring for the environment, this project is about getting residents involved and bringing communities together.    

“By getting involved with the tidy-up residents can help make a visible difference, connect with neighbours, and restore pride in the area they live.”  

Love Your Neighbourhood is a citywide tidy-up programme designed to tackle small areas one at a time.    

The team tidy each area over a two-week period, after which residents should see a noticeable difference in the look and feel of their neighbourhood.
