What a Waste: Where can I borrow litter-picking equipment from?

We want you to become Waste Warriors this summer and get out to do your bit to rid our parks and beaches of litter.

But a true bin-fluencer needs to make sure they are kitted out in the right way.

There are plenty of councils and charities out there who are happy to loan out equipment to volunteers - including hi-vis jackets and litter pickers - and some will even come and collect the rubbish when you are done.
