Family-friendly litter-picking at Ravenscraig Park

Get involved with our family-friendly Spring Clean Scotland event with Rubbish Rangers at Ravenscraig Park.

We will work together to clean the park for spring and show your loved ones how important it is to look after our green spaces. From tots to teenagers, everyone can get involved and help keep the park clean, safe, and litter‑free. Come along, enjoy some time outdoors, soak up the natural surroundings and make a positive impact as a family.

We will meet at Ravenscraig Walled Garden where Greener Kirkcaldy will show us around the garden before we set off together to litter-pick in the park.

Our litter-picking will take us through Ravenscraig Park, focusing on areas near to the tarmac path. We will finish at the playground allowing children to have some time to play towards the end of the event.

This session is part of Spring Clean Scotland, Keep Scotland Beautiful’s annual campaign which brings together people from across Scotland to tackle litter.

Additional Information

Please note that this event is weather-dependent. In the event of forecast adverse weather, Greener Kirkcaldy staff will decide whether to go ahead with the walk the day before. We will contact attendees via phone and email if the walk cannot go ahead.

Dress for the outdoors – it might get muddy and wet in the park so wear appropriate shoes. Bringing water and light snacks for young kids is advised as well.

Litter pickers, high‑vis vests for kids, bin bags, and children’s gardening gloves will be provided. Disposable gloves will be available for adult participants, but you’re welcome to bring your own gardening gloves if you prefer.
