Report written by Tav (he/him)
This evening we found a few surprising things that people had dumped, fly-tipped and tossed into the bushes around Abbey Fields. Along with the usual wrappers, bottles, dog poo in bags and take away cartons we cleared up an iron - but an armchair and a set of pots and pans were to big for our sacks unfortunately.
Litter blights our streets, parks and beaches and costs us millions of pounds to clear up every year. Keep Britain Tidy is here to inspire people to eliminate litter now and for future generations. This is about more than simply getting people to pick up litter. We aim to change behaviour permanently by spotlighting the problem daily and offering creative solutions. We work with people, businesses, local authorities and government to educate, innovate and inspire - improving the environment on everyone’s doorstep.
