Cleanascene © is a project that aims to find solutions to Balsall Heath’s litter problem, working alongside schools, residents, community groups, local organisations and the council.

Cleanascene aspires to "create community".










Cleanascene’s core objective is to engage and inspire primary aged children through creative activities and events, raising their awareness of environmental issues, and showing how they can make a positive difference to where they live.
Our aim is also to trigger residents’ own initiative, facilitating community cohesion and promoting wellbeing in our neighbourhood.

This was our first big cleanup parade (above). Supported by Fleet and Waste from Birmingham City Council, Fire Brigade, the police, Balsall Heath Forum, Sparkbrook Neighbourhood Forum, Labour Councilor for Sparkbrook Ward: Victoria Quinn and of course the children of our community, with some adults that helped us to make a lot of noise!!

  • No "Award for all" funding for Cleanascene 2014-15 school project Environmentalist princess Cleanascene and evil Ratzilla will have to wait...This is the project that did not get the funding from Awards For All. We aimed to work in collaboration with schools, get the advantage that children were already there, targeting all Balsall Heath's children. We wanted Cleanascene to be part of citizenship, planning a minimal impact on school times. Award For All declined the proposal based on our timings: our activities should happen outside school time hours, like clubs activities or weekends. We have already tried to work like that in Balsall Heath (Balsall Heath Clean-up Parade 2013) and the participation in our activities outside school times was very low. With very little time in our hands ...
