Keep trying to educate people not to drop litter, then prosecute if that does not work. Catching them is bad enough. The council does not drop the leitter they have to pick it up and catch those who drop it.

I get very cross with the litter that is just dropped anywhere. I try and get more bins placed if there are none. But sometimes there is a bin within a few feet and still litter gets dropped. I know we notify the enforcement team of these areas and they try to find the people who litter and fine them. I think we need to educate people as well.

Me personally!? Sadly, no, but if we all work together people’s behaviour may improve and it will become just unacceptable to drop litter.

I get verry cross with people who litter because litter pickers are spending a lot of time picking litter up and people are throwing it again
