Businesses large and small are getting behind a new campaign to ensure locals, visitors, and tourists treat beautiful Argyll and Bute with care this summer!

The campaign designed by The GRAB Trust and Argyll and Bute Council with support from Keep Scotland Beautiful will provide information, advice, and guidance to help minimise the effect of staycation tourism on littering.

Raising awareness to their customers; cafes, eateries, and takeaways will be adding to the campaign by placing stickers with the eye-catching Keep Scotland Beautiful designs on drinks cups and hot food takeaway and sandwich wrappers this summer.

The small stickers are available from The GRAB Trust free of charge (available in rolls of 1,000 while stocks last) to any business that would like to join the campaign and encourage everyone to do their bit in disposing of litter responsibly during the summer.

In addition to food packaging, the campaign message will be seen on ’till talkers’, Argyll and Bute Council litter bins, and on social media.

Public access litter picking stations will be available for organised groups to borrow at collection points hosted by Live Argyll.

The GRAB Trust is also coordinating litter picks with community groups and will encourage communities to get involved.

To get your free stickers, till talkers, posters, and the staycation campaign, contact The GRAB Trust at LApickers@grab.org.uk, call 01546 604420, or fill out this form: https://forms.gle/NrNoJGsdXhfyvXSR9
