Stamping on large cardboard boxes then folding them means they will fit in the blue lidded dustbin! It's not difficult!
Dumping rubbish has cost a resident £250 after being caught in Thornton Heath. We all share Croydon, so we all need to be responsible to keep it clean. Let’s tidy up after ourselves & dispose of rubbish responsibly. Report fly-tipping on Love Clean Streets📱 #CleanerCroydon

The UK uses around 8.7 billion rolls of loo roll every year – about 7 million trees are felled annually just for toilet paper. Bamboo loo rolls like these are a more sustainable option – & are also plastic free, helping to reduce ocean plastic waste. See: https://t.co/yiZoBqXUzn

Do you know what brings communities together? ✨Trees ✨ We've seen it happen many times - like Croydon residents Sajid and Donna, who helped sponsor trees on their highstreet. They've united over greening their neighbourhood, and feel more connected to where they live 💚

The clearing of waste on private land is the landowner's responsibility, not the Council’s. When we hear about eyesores like this one in Thornton Heath, our teams get in touch with landowners to get it cleared 🚯 Report dumped rubbish via Love Clean Streets 📱 #CleanerCroydon

Update: I’ve now formally raised the issues behind the Stop Pavement Dumping in Croydon petition with the Council, including the relevant legal framework. If you agree pavements shouldn’t be used as bin stores, please sign or share: #cleanstreets

Plant a wildlife hedge instead of building a fence! It could help hedgehogs, bumblebees, blue tits, small mammals, insects, robins, frogs, fieldfares, bats, toads, butterflies, moths, blackbirds, solitary bees, wrens, hoverflies...
