Renfrewshire Council has been accused of “failing” to deal with rubbish itself after thousands of volunteers took part in clean-up sessions in the past year.
More than 9,500 people took part in 3,750 clean ups in 2022/23 as part of the Team Up to Clean Up initiative – a partnership between the local authority and community focusing on keeping the area as tidy and free of litter as possible.
Those who support the award-winning campaign have been praised by elected members, who said it was “tremendous” that so many get involved in litter-picking events across the local authority.
