The Parks Trust Litter Poster Design Competition Winners

The Parks Trust are thrilled to announce the winners of our annual competition to find two new poster designs to encourage less littering in the city’s green spaces.

Our expert panel were blown away by this year’s entries and had a tough time shortlisting a selection for the public vote, but we’re delighted to present our winners with their certificate and the chance to see their posters displayed across Milton Keynes.


Michelle Abiloa – KS1 winner from Saint Bernadette’s Catholic Primary School

Willow Wiseman – KS2 winner from Hanslope Primary School


They’ve also earnt their schools an outdoor learning session, plus a set of handy litter pickers to help staff and pupils safely clear away any litter they come across.


The Parks Trust is a self-financing charity that undertakes around £400,000 worth of litter collection and parks cleansing every year. The annual poster competition runs in conjunction with MK City Council’s Waste and Recycling team to coincide with The Great British Spring Clean.

Sarah Griffiths, the charity’s Outdoor Learning and Interpretation Manager adds “It’s always great to see how our creative young residents communicate such a vital message. They really care about the impact that litter has on the local environment and wildlife, and I can’t wait to see these new poster designs appearing across the city parks and outdoor spaces.”


Anyone who’s keen to get involved in combatting local litter can join a Community Litter Pick, organised by The Parks Trust. The next one is on Tuesday 30 May at 10am in Kents Hill Park. Further details can be found at theparkstrust.com/events/community-litter-pick-kents-hill
