In a big clean-up and activity project around 60 volunteers helped out as residents cleared out large items of unwanted rubbish.
And at the end of the day they had managed to fill 15 skips to make the area tidier.
"It's been a great effort," said chairman of West View Community Association David Blower.
The association was helped by Wyre Housing Association, which paid for the skips, and there was also advice available from police and fire officers.
Much of the work was done by pupils from Charles Saer Primary School and Fleetwood Sports College and unpaid workers sent by the Probation Service were busy painting garage doors at the community centre on Eden Avenue.
To further smarten the area local youngsters were planting bulbs on Chatsworth Avenue, close to the homes of pensioners, with instruction from Wyre Council's Parks and Open Spaces Department.
Mr Blower added: "It's a thing for the younger generation because a lot of this is organised by the kids.
"They are taking charge of their estate. They want it to be a far better place to be and that is very important.
"They live here and want to improve it: they are making changes all the time.
"Hopefully, this will encourage them to be responsible adults and take care of the area when they grow up.
"They are working hard and doing planting for old people, which is good news."
Sgt Gary Tunstall, of Fleetwood Police, said: "There is a worry about having community clean-ups, because people might accumulate rubbish, but doing this in October you tend to get rid of combustible material before bonfire night.
"In this area we have unauthorised bonfires so it is a lot less material for them."
