About this Event
Falkirk residents are invited to participate in a Community Litter Workshop.
The free workshop aims to provide you with information and access to resources to support you to help tackle litter and littering behaviour.
At the workshop, participants will develop an understanding of:
- why litter is a problem;
- the wider impacts of poor environmental quality; and
- the basics of behaviour change theory.
Participants will also build knowledge to:
- develop an effective plan to tackle litter in the local area;
- monitor and report on the litter problem I the local area; and
- identify further information and support to tackle the litter emergency.
The 90 minute workshop is being delivered by Keep Scotland Beautiful (KSB), as part of our actions for the National Litter and Flytipping Strategy's (NLFS) Year 2 Action Plan, which are in partnership with Zero Waste Scotland and SEPA.
The workshops are funded by the Scottish Government.
