This week the first Don’t Trash Oldham clean up started in the Alexandra Ward and our teams were on site clearing waste, litter and weeds from alleyways.
Cllr Arooj Shah, Leader of Oldham Council, went down to meet the team and see what they’re up against.
We still have street cleaning roles available, offering both shifts and part-time positions.
Interested? Closing date for the positions is 19 September. For more info and to apply, head to Greater Jobs

You can take a spooky walk and uncover some of the ghostly goings-on in Oldham, take a tour of one of the most iconic buildings in Oldham or visit our exhibition of lovingly restored vintage and classic cars.
You may see Greater Manchester Clean Air Zone road signs and enforcement cameras popping up in your area over the next few weeks and months.
Greater Manchester is getting ready for the launch of a Clean Air Zone on 30 May 2022.
The Zone won’t be in operation until then, and cameras are just being tested at the moment.
The Clean Air Zone is designed to reduce air pollution from road traffic in Greater Manchester and bring it within legal limits as soon as possible.
If they don’t meet emission standards, vans, HGVs, buses, coaches, hackney cabs, private hire vehicles and some specialist vehicles will pay a daily charge to drive in the Zone. Private cars, motorbikes and mopeds aren’t included.
To find out more about the Zone and whether your vehicle may be affected, visit cleanairgm.com
