South Ayrshire Clean-Up Campaign

Lodged by Siobhian Brown (Scottish National Party) Standard Motion 22 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament applauds the South Ayrshire Clean-up Campaign for surpassing its goal of picking up more than one million pieces of litter in South Ayrshire in 2021; understands that if every sack of litter that the dedicated team of volunteers collected were to be stacked on top of each other, it would be twice the height of Ben Nevis; congratulates the campaign for demonstrating that littering is not only antisocial, but has huge environmental and health impacts across society, and commends the hard work of everyone who gave their time to support this important campaign, which recorded 3,095 hours of volunteer activity to keep South Ayrshire looking beautiful and raise an important message within the community.
