In Lewisham and Southwark they now have the community bin also known
as *the streets.

That's all over the UK , even in the countryside! LOL- Hide quoted text -

Start to clear it up. Take a lead. There's seldom any bottles/drinks
cans/plastic bottles in the streets around my house, because when I'm
out walking the dog, I pick them up, take them back with me and put
them in the recycling. Just small things like that make the streets
look tidier and that encourages people to keep them tidy. There's very
good research that shows that people further abuse areas which are
constantly untidy and litter-strewn, but don't do the same with areas
which are seen to be clean.

It takes nothing to pick up a few cans, or bottles. Start a trend and
you might be surprised at what improvements come from it.
