The Sweeper Zone project has been a huge success and is now going into its 7^th year. The project was set up to help clear litter on match days at Anfield Stadium and in the surrounding residential areas.

There are 16 community groups – schools, community centres, resident groups – involved in the Sweeper Zone project, all located in and around Anfield.

At each match 20 young people aged 13-16 years and 5 leaders meet 2 hours before kick-of at the Sweeper Zone base in Breckfield Junior School. They then go out in small groups to clean up litter around the area of the stadium.

As a reward for contributing their time and effort to keeping the Anfield and Breckfield areas clean and tidy they receive a free ticket to stay and watch the Liverpool game.

Last season we gave over 700 free match tickets for the Sweeper Zone project.

The project also partners with Enterprise-Liverpool and has a bright red street cleaning vehicle that works cleaning within the area both on match and non-match days.
