Visited our local cemetery today to pay our respects as football fans (Leic City). We often pass George's grave and saw it was in need of a tidy up. So scarves washed, headstone cleaned and flowers placed. RIP George @CFC_Graves_Soc @AndySco67625701 @RickGlanvill @dan_coker – at Leicester, England
I just want to go for a walk to enjoy the countryside and unwind but the tossers just continue to raise my blood pressure. Please,just sort out a deposit return scheme now ! @BorisJohnson @DefraGovUK @Deposit_return @CanalRiverTrust

This is the state of the UK hidden litter problem. Out with south Leicestershire litter wombles & found this shrub area. @BBCSpringwatch @bbcemt @BBCLeicester @SkyNews #DontBeaTosser
34 plastic bottles of Coca-Cola picked out of a few metres of shrubs in a local nature reserve. Stick this evidence in the Deposit Return Scheme consultation process ! It's a bloody no brainer.🤔 Why all the research & talking until 2024 ? Muppets ! @DefraGovUK @CocaCola
Lay-bys in the UK are a national disgrace ! Well done for clearing one up of its crap 👍
166 bags of litter now collected from A5 Kilsby lay-by. @chhcalling did you get anywhere with getting any bins for the area? Did you contact @Prologis to see if they could help? Disheartening to return here to find more litter left @CllrPhilLarratt @TruckersUp @KeepBritainTidy
With 38 other @SLLWombles this morning at a layby near Lutterworth.What a filthy country we live in ! 323 bags of grot removed along with other larger flytipped items. Farmer Marcus & his tractor turned up to help thankfully.👍 @cleanupbritain @DefraGovUK @MPGeorgeEustice
Some of Wigstons and Leicesters finest giving up 3 hours on a Saturday afternoon. Great to be part of it. 👍
5 of us from the sth Leicestershire litter wombles met up to clear some grot from an industrial area leading to a nature reserve. 37 bags in 3 hours isn’t bad going. 👏🏻👏🏻#talkingrubbish #dontbeatosser

This is happening on a daily basis all over our countryside. What do we need to do to stop this? @NFUtweets @NFULNR @cleanupbritain @WasteCrimeWatch @ClearWasteApp @LeicsRuralCrime

After breaking the back of this arduous & busy stretch of road on our previous picks, today we finally reached the end. 5 bags of litter collected, plus a fence panel, added to our previous total of 88 bags which brings us to the grand total of 93 @CleanStreetsApp @BlabyDC
So many groups and individuals all over the country trying to clear up. A constant battle. Well done and thank you. 👏
The Countesthorpe group in Leicestershire are doing an amazing job. Well done everyone 👍
I can be a bit grumpy & don't have much faith in officialdom but credit to Network Rail for clearing a grot spot of litter next to my local footbridge after complaining. Sadly, a plastic bottle & sweet wrapper has already appeared & so it begins again ! 🙄 @networkrail
Needs to be shown on TV at peak times day in day out ! Nearly 500 views so far, probably seen mostly by the converted. 🤔
Are you planning on visiting your local countryside or green spaces for your daily exercise?
Let’s keep it clean. Please remember to take your #litter home with you, stick to designated footpaths, and keep your dogs under control to protect our countryside.

Rubbish cleared from the ditch next to the welcome sign into the village. National Govt & Councils have given up and sadly, I think, a large part of society have become de-sensitized from it or probably don't care.🤔 @KeepBritainTidy @cleanupbritain @Oadby_Wigston
In order to keep my sanity I have stopped getting angry & trying to understand why so many people trash the environment with their crap. It doesn't do you any good. I just switch off now and go and clear some. I feel better then ! 😃 @KeepBritainTidy
