[@liesvandenplas8066]

What a great initiative! I don't know if the UK has such projects yet, but here in Belgium we have a few government funded projects where volunteers pick up litter with those claw thingies and trash bags and the government pays to safely dispose of the litter and reduce overall trash when possible. They also pay for the trash bags. Most volunteers also sort there stuff first, so glass and cans and such are recycled, but if they decide not to, there are also volunteer stations that will do that. It's becoming very popular here and in my street alone there are almost 20 volunteers! I sadly can't go help as much due to my disabilities making it near impossible to bend over so often and from a muscle disease those claw things aren't really an option either as I can't grip them well enough. I do try to do my part, though and recycle and re-use every way I can and buy things with no/recyclable packaging if possible. My animals have quite a few enrichment games I made out of what would have been trash (with some help ofc). Bottlecaps for example are great for a sniffing box if cleaned and not sharp or even just to hide things under! Another popular one is a plastic bottle with holes in that I toss treats into, so they have to roll it around to get the treats.
