The Chorley Smile Campaign
People in Chorley are being invited to sign up for a borough-wide civic pride campaign to make residents feel good and encourage them to get involved in making a difference to their neighbourhood.
The Chorley Smile campaign is a partnership between the Council and residents to encourage everyone to feel proud of Chorley.
The Council will continue to provide excellent, value for money services and improve the borough and residents, community groups, schools and local businesses are being urged to play their part in helping to keep their community clean and to shout about what makes them proud of Chorley.
Some Chorley residents are already involved in maintaining and improving their community and we think they're doing a fantastic job. However, everyone needs to do their bit to make Chorley Smile.

Chorley Smile is all about taking pride in your neighbourhood and making a difference. There are loads of ways you can do this including simple things like not dropping litter or dumping waste, helping other residents in your area, respecting your neighbours and reporting any environmental crimes such as fly tipping and graffiti.
