Whichever moron shouted abuse at a fellow womble this morning on Aigburth Road - swearing, accusing him of stealing jobs & an insult about his appearance I will hunt you down and shove a NOS canister where the sun doesn’t shine! Volunteers are heroes ❤️

Our group are doing amazing things in South Liverpool but are getting disheartened when no one acknowledges them & just walk past when they’re litter picking - can anyone recommend a local media source who might do a good news piece on them to keep their spirits up? Thanks 😊

We will not be actively litter picking Sefton Park after Africa Oye We are a group of volunteers, if @lpoolcouncil can put this event on then they can clean it up back up to the green flag standard. If they can do it for Eurovision in town they can do it for this.

Hey @lpool_LSSL what’s going on with the bins at the moment?8439235 We’re busting our backsides cleaning up litter and bagging it, but if people can’t even use the bins because they’re full what’s the point? This is incredibly frustrating 😡 and disheartening #GBSpringClean

Who says litter picking doesn’t pay? It’s good for the soul and good for the pocket - loving the new bank notes that don’t disintegrate “the first thing we picked up on the way to Aigburth Vale. 2 of us 2 bags and 1.5 hours (Sally has already counted it up)” #pennylanewombles

We removed 4,023 bin bag sized bags of litter last year in South Liverpool but we could easily double this - people need to stop dropping, dumping and throwing litter from cars - it needs education and enforcement & litter needs removing quickly so people don’t add to it

If you are fed up with litter and you are able to, grab a litter picker and start with your street, then branch out and do your route to work, school or the shops - the difference is instant and it makes you feel good - stop moaning about it and take action, be the change

A HUGE effort from James with these bags from Croxteth Gate, Sefton Park 5 bags of litter Whatever your views on bins, do we have enough? Why can’t we have the big euro bins back in Sefton Park during the summer? should people be expected to take it home? More LSSL staff ❤️

Fed up of unloved spots where you live? Just do it yourself 🤷‍♀️ Lots of people stopped to chat, no one offered to help but I don’t care Both beds have been weeded, hidden plants now flourish on the right, seed bombs sown in both beds #pennylane #lovewhereyoulive

Jean cleaned the back of the bin outside Maray Allerton Rd so now it shuts properly ❤️ - she also picked up all this crap - Jean is 70 and Jean shouldn’t have to do this - stop dropping your litter #bemorejean
