  • Cleaning up after some other litter pickers who abandoned their bags along the Grand union canal, causing rubbish to pile up. I don't think I've seen the last of this, unfortunately :/

    Other litter pickers probably got so disillusioned, continuously cleaning the same area that they threw themselves into the canal

    Thank you so much for what you do! I don't think the area at 21:00 (ish) needs a trimback, though. It looks like a beautiful green tunnel, and I love spaces like that.

    A bottle deposit would solve a lot of the problem. In New York City the “canners” make a living from returning bottles and cans. #flawlesscleaning Flawless Cleaning has cleaned public pathways in the past. Might be worth your time to get in touch with them.

      Welcome to Britain - the dirty man of Europe. That’s pretty much everywhere up and down the county, no mater where you go, people treat planters, bushes, green spaces and everything around as a bin. Absolutely zero awareness and respect, just happy to live in all that mess. Not sure if there’s any solution to this, the government policies are non-existing and zero prospects of introducing any real changes to education/awareness campaign.

      Yea, as Jay said, I went back to it one day and someone has lit a fire in there; It's right under a tree in a densely packed area of other trees, and it was the driest part of summer, so there was no way I wanted to risk that happening again! That really annoyed me tbh :/

    Honestly don't really blame them for giving up ..Some areas just don't give af about the efforts people go through to keep places clean and just spit in our faces by throwing rubbish everywhere.... Made me give up street cleaning tbh...got fed up with the sheer scale of disregard and even people using abusive behaviour for trying to help their community.... Won't do that again unless it involves a decent wage pm lol
