Over
the past 20 plus years DWT has amassed an army of over 600 litter heroes,
and this litter picking network has been the equivalent of 11 full time members of staff just litter picking, every year on our streets and in our green spaces..
Thanks and praise to all our volunteer litter wardens achievements - we thank you!
You
may already be aware that from 30 September 2023 the DWT Trustee board
decided to close the Pump House Environment Centre and cease all
activities connected to the project. This included the Litter Equipment
Loan Service (LELS) and the Volunteer Litter Warden Scheme (VLWS).
Staff are currently serving their notice before redundancy on 23
December 2023.
As
the VLWS project ends and if you are a registered volunteer litter warden; you are welcome to keep your litter picking
equipment.
But please contact your local council’s community engagement team
for supplies. DWT will not be managing any scheme going forward from 1 October 2023.
