📣 The East Ayrshire Federation Supports Keep Scotland Beautiful 💙🏞 national campaign to tackle fly-tipping and encourage everyone to take responsibility for their waste! ♻️

🗑Fly-tipping can have serious consequences for people and the environment.

📌Waste can contain hazardous materials, harm plants and wildlife, and pollute land and water.

📌It can also leave local authorities, landowners and businesses dealing with the cost and practical work of clearing it up.

👉If you discover fly-tipping, it’s important that you report it as soon as possible. The more details you can provide, the better! 📝

to learn more information on what YOU can do help tackle fly tipping and how you can report to East Ayrshire Council 👏
