Keep Wales Tidy

Putting litter into waste bins is really just the beginning... 

It’s easy to think of Keep Wales Tidy as the Litter Police! And yes, tackling litter is a vital part of our work – but we’re targeting the other things that spoil our environment too. Like graffiti, fly-tipping, vandalism, pollution...the anti-social issues that plague our communities.

Above all else, we’re about making Wales a better place to live. Our goal is to create an environment that’s enjoyed by all – where everyone shares responsibility and everyone takes advantage of the world that’s on their doorstep.
