Default Removing with formula

I am trying to clean some data. I need to remove characters like &
' / etc....

This is what I have so far. It removes all spaces from the cell.

=TRIM(CLEAN(LOWER(SUBSTITUTE(CatCleaned!D370, " ", ""))))

Do you have any suggestions on adding to the formula to remove the
other characters?

Thank you.
