No more rubbish excuses!

‘No More Rubbish Excuses’ is designed to keep our lovely local patch spotless as well as stunning, and the council is rewarding those of us who bin our waste properly – now you can also win when you bin!

LitterLotto! Bin it to win it!

The council applauds everyone who isn’t litter lazy. That’s why they’ve joined up with LitterLotto, offering us locals the chance to win on-the-spot cash prizes as well as a £10,000 jackpot.

Earn bonus entries into the jackpot draw by inviting your friends and family, if they end up winning the jackpot, you’ll get a prize too!

Our patch includes countryside and coast, heritage spots, great walks, parks for playing in and the most amazing beaches. There are more than 600 litter and dog poo bins across the Borough, yet, the council says some people don’t use them and there are still rubbish hotspots which can be simply avoided.

Our beaches are beautiful but as the weather warms up, litter on the waterfront becomes more of an issue. It’s an eyesore, spoiling the beach for everyone and making its way into the Solent where it harms the water and our wildlife.

Please, please always plop your pooch poo or your rubbish in a bin, or if it’s full take it home, don’t just leave it by the bin or chuck it in a hedge.

In 2020, 686 tonnes of waste were collected from our litter bins and through litter picking on streets, parks, seafronts and open spaces. That’s the same weight as 98 elephants or 381 cars!
