The clean-up in Coldhurst saw eight bags of rubbish collected from the Barker Street Estate early on Saturday morning, and the litter pick in Chadderton South saw 11 bags of rubbish, an old fridge, an old style television, two abandoned ASDA trolleys and several piles of discarded wood collected by the community activists.
Mr McMahon said: “I'm really grateful to Oldham Council and ward councillors for showing leadership on this.
“As much as the big strategic projects are important for the future of our town and our high street, people have the right to know that the streets where they live are well cared for, tended to, and people can be proud of where they live.
“It's got to be a community effort, that's why I'm so glad so many residents in Chadderton South joined us on Saturday.
"It's important of course that we're all out - but it's about building a wider movement, and taking back control of the places where we live.”
