Staff at East Ayrshire Council have been busy this month with spring cleaning across the local authority. 

Greener Communities staff have been working alongside local groups to complete litter picks in Dalrymple, Kilmaurs, Hurlford and Dalmellington.

Upcoming litter picks include Bellfield, Auchinleck, Shortlees and Ochiltree, and more information on these can be found on the East Ayrshire Vibrant Communities Facebook page.

Deep cleans have also taken place in Kilmarnock and Cumnock town centres, with 32 bags of rubbish removed from Cumnock town centre alone.

The team also cleaned under bins, street furniture, and swept the streets in Dalmellington.

A council spokesperson said: "Big thanks to everyone who's been involved! You're helping to keep our communities clean, green and vibrant."
