Capital Standards have helped with the National survey of every local authority in England between April 2006 – March 2008.
The aim of this work was to report on how much litter, graffiti and flyposting are found in each council area - on the street, in parks, town centres and other places that the public visit for work and recreation. It will give councils detailed information on the nature and scale of any problems, helping them to target resources effectively and improve standards.
You can take a look at your local area by visiting Defra website at: www.defra.gov.uk, or via the ENCAMS website: www.encams.org.
