Labour Bristol has committed to making Bristol measurably cleaner by 2020. That means less litter, fly tipping, fly posting, graffiti, and dog fouling. It also means more reuse, repairing and recycling.

We’ve launched a Clean Streets campaign encouraging individuals, community groups, schools and businesses to take collective responsibility for keeping our streets clean and tidy, and supporting everyone to reuse, repair and recycle more.

However we acknowledge that for some people, encouragement to keep our streets clean is not enough. That’s why we’ve introduced fines of up to £100 for dropping litter.

We can all do our bit to improve our neighbourhoods. Why not get together with some neighbours and organise a litter pick? Bristol Waste can provide free litter picking packs. Go to: bit.ly/2rZVGpK
