What part of 'No Dumping' still don't you understand?

Dear Garden Friends,

Despite the overwhelmingly positive response to our 'Green-up & clean-up' initiative along Fordwych and St Cuthberts Roads with the planting up of the tree pits, dumping and fly-tipping continues in a few hot spots.

Exhibit A: here's the current state of things outside Number 7 Fordwych Road:

And here's our response:

DISGRACEFUL!   SHAMEFUL!   ILLEGAL!

And you’ve been reported to the Council!

Camden Council is aware of the dumping and fly-tipping and dog-fouling problem and is stepping up its monitoring and enforcement efforts in response as you can see from this email from Bryn Griffiths:

"Thank you for contacting us regarding the problem of fly-tipping along Fordwych Road and around St Cuthberts Road. I am aware that Fordwych Road has been a problem area for waste being left on the street and I do monitor the area as frequently as I am able. I will be stepping up my efforts to educate local residents about their duties to contain their waste correctly and will be sending out letters to anyone that I find evidence against among any fly-tips found.

If you wish to contact me directly to discuss this further or to report any fly-tips you have come across in the area then please either email me at this address or call me on the numbers below (please note that the office phone number does not have a messaging service but the mobile does)."

Kind regards

So, rather than turning a blind eye or 'tut-tutting' about it, if you want to minimise such antisocial behaviour in our neighbourhood, please take a photo and report each and every instance of dumping and fly-tipping and dog-fouling to Bryn Griffiths at Camden Council:

Together we can continue to make a difference to Green-up and Clean-up our neighbourhood!

Keep calm and carry on gardening!
