Volunteer as a Snow Champion

If you are interested in volunteering as a Snow Champion, you can register your interest using our form.

Snow Champions help keep the pavements in their neighbourhood safe and walkable during the winter.

Volunteers clear snow and ice from pavements that are not part of the council’s priority gritting routes. This helps residents move around safely during cold weather.

What Snow Champions do

Snow Champions help by:

  • clearing snow and ice from local pavements
  • spreading de-icing salt when needed
  • helping neighbours move around safely

You can volunteer on streets near where you live.

What we provide

If you become a Snow Champion, we will provide:

  • snow-clearing equipment
  • de-icing salt
  • guidance and support

The scheme is currently in development for next winter.

Before you start

You will need to provide:

  • your full name
  • email address
  • phone number
  • the area where you would like to help clear snow and ice
