Camden wanted to take stronger action against those who commit environmental crimes affecting Camden's street scene. 

The fine for littering - including the dropping of cigarette butts - has now been raised to £100. 

From Monday 1 April 2019  the cost of fines for the illegal dumping of rubbish and business waste  increased. 

• fly-tipping maximum penalty increased to £400 (discounted to £200 if paid early)
• business waste - 'failure to comply with a waste receptacle notice' penalty increased to £110  (discounted to £80 if paid early)

Clean Camden and Veolia will again be supporting the Great British Spring Clean (GBSC). The GBSC is a UK-wide clean-up event, organised by Keep Britain Tidy, which you can take part in with your local community. 

We will be able to provide registered Camden based residents and groups with litter picks, bags and gloves for their clean up event.  These will be available for collection, by appointment only, closer to the time. 

Email street.environment@camden.gov.uk to request your GBSC Kit

Please note - Regent's Canal, Regent's Park and Hampstead Heath are not managed or maintained by Camden. We would advise you to contact the appropriate land manager first if you intend to pick litter in one of these spaces.
