Council leader **Phélim Mac Cafferty** has today thanked the hundreds of people who carried out community clean ups during the **Keep Brighton & Hove Tidy** fortnight.

Businesses, community groups, tidy up teams, volunteers, councillors and **Brighton & Hove Council** staff were all involved in helping keep the city clean by carrying out graffiti paint-outs, sticker removal, street jet washing, weeding, beach and park cleans and litter picking.

The two weeks blitz was launched by **Cityclean** who spent four days and nights deep cleaning some of the city’s dirtiest streets.

Cllr Mac Cafferty said: *“I want to send my sincerest thanks and best wishes to every single person who got involved in Keep Brighton & Hove Tidy.*  
  
*“It was brilliant to see and hear of the wide range of organisations that took part, from big and small businesses in the city to community groups and individuals.*  
  
*“It’s been a tremendous effort and I believe it’s restored some pride in the city which has been lost over the last few years.*

*“This is only the beginning. We will continue to tackle graffiti, fly-tipping, littering and all other ways of keeping our city clean and tidy.*  
  
*“We’ll also be looking at ways of continuing to work in the future with everyone involved so far while bringing even more businesses and people onboard.”*
