This week, we are celebrating the incredible impact of small charities across the UK, including our very own Addiction Family Support. Small charities may be modest in size, but their dedication, compassion, and resilience are anything but small. 💪💙 #SmallCharitiesWeek

Councils are, sadly, part of Britain’s litter problem. Too many of them just don’t empty their bins regularly enough. There are no excuses for them not doing this.

So sad to see the Common abused like this.
Despite requests to take rubbish home, this is what our staff faced at Putney Lower Common this morning. Please help us spread the word about taking rubbish home. #takerubbishhome

What a shame our volunteers were just a long the river clearing #litter would have loved to have met @Feargal_Sharkey when he was in SW15!
I am delighted to launch my campaign to be re-elected as the MP for Putney, Roehampton, Southfields and Wandsworth Town. It was great to be joined on Putney Embankment by Feargal Sharkey and so many @PutneyLabour activists. It is time for change. Join us! #VoteLabour

LET’S GET TOUGH. (Action, not weasel words from weak politicians) More great work here - but this lazy and irresponsible bloke littering should get a £1,000 fine immediately AND six penalty points on his licence. He won’t do it again… @NicholasHellen
Commercial driver thought it might be okay to leave his litter at Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire 16Dec'23... ...it wasn't This evidence gathered using traffic camera led to £150 fixed penalty which has now been paid in full to avoid court prosecution for #littering offence 🚯🤦‍♂️📮

Double win today, cleaning up both on and off the pitch on a pretty miserable morning! We're a week into Ramadan already, our stamina and energy levels feel normal now and the days are going past very quickly! – at Tonbridge, South East
