Fed up with dirty and littered streets? So are we. In Aberdeenshire Litter Initiative - ALi, we have decided to take government ministers and councils to court and are asking the public to support the cost of legal action by crowd funding. We want the courts to enforce the standards that councils and other public bodies are required to uphold by law. Please join us in our fight by making a small donation of £1 - and PLS TELL US WHERE YOU ARE FROM.

Campaigns, complaints and years of volunteer litter picking have failed to stop the decline in the cleanliness of our streets and open spaces. Councils etc. may ignore the law and the people but they cannot ignore the courts.

Unclean streets impact adversely on physical and mental health; community wellbeing; low level crime; business investment; tourism and so much more. We will use the laws and cleanliness standards that the politicians made to force them to clean up our communities.

We have already started by appointing a legal team and would like £1 from the many thousands of people who care about the state of the environment of the UK and want to change it.

The minimum donation through Just Giving is £2 (it shows £10 but we would be delighted to receive £2) Alternatively, we would be pleased to get donations from individuals direct to our bank account - Bank of Scotland.
