Do you know it costs local authorities £682 million or £29 per household to keep our streets clean. And Highways England spends at least £6 million a year on collecting litter?

Now more than ever, we need to keep looking after each other. #dontthrowitallaway

Did you know by 2050, plastic in the oceans will outweigh fish. Every year, 8 million metric tons of litter end up in our oceans.
