We're supporting the Scottish Government to deliver the National Litter and Flytipping Strategy for Scotland which was published in June 2023, alongside Zero Waste Scotland and the Scottish Environment Protect Agency (SEPA).  

We're committed to collaborating with our partners to drive implementation of the strategy action plans to tackle the litter emergency which we declared in 2022.

The climate, nature and litter emergencies are all interlinked; with unsustainable consumption at the heart of all three - in an effort to make Scotland clean, green and sustainable we understand that we need to inspire behaviour change to improve our environment and the quality of people's lives, their wellbeing and the places that they care for. 

As a key delivery partner of the Strategy Action Plan, we have been working hard with our partners, funders and communities across the country.

During 2023/24, the first year action plan, we engaged and empowered communities through the development and creation of  an online Community Litter Hub, a new litter education programme and testing innovative interventions to tackle littering behaviours and collecting and analysing litter data to support improvements in line with the Data Strategy.

Last year and this year we’ve been building on these actions, continuing to develop and add content to the Community Litter Hub, build on our roadside litter campaign across more areas and continue supporting wider data collection, analysis and improvements in line with the Data Strategy.

You can find out more about our other active work to tackle the litter emergency and how you can get involved here.

Be inspired and play your part in making the litter strategy work for you and for Scotland.
