This project began when one of our members who works in data thought it would be fun to record the volume and location of litter collected.
What began as a fun way of reinvigorating our litter picking has highlighted areas we had been unwittingly neglecting. Based on this data, we are now making informed decisions about where to litter pick. Over a 12 month period, we hope it will allow us to view trends in litter (weekend vs midweek, school time vs holidays) and base our work on our observations of the data.
