September Redbridge Wall of Shame: Help us find the grime crime offenders making a mess in our borough

Redbridge is one of the most biodiverse and greenest boroughs in London, with award winning parks and open spaces, and we want to keep it that way.

We are working closely with local communities to send a strong message to fly-tippers that we won’t tolerate their mess on our streets, and are continuing our crackdown on grime crime with the release of the September edition of Redbridge Wall of Shame.

CCTV footage released for this month’s Wall of Shame shows clips of people dumping a cot mattress, rubbish next to people’s houses, and bags pf waste by public street bins, which is also fly-tipping.

Local people are being asked to come forward if they have any information relating to the offenders in the footage.

Head to Redbridge Wall of Shame to view the footage: https://wallofshame.redbridge.gov.uk/

If you can help identify any of the culprits in the four clips please contact Redbridge Council on: Cleansing.Services@redbridge.gov.uk

Community support for tougher action against fly-tippers has also triggered steeper penalties for those caught making a mess in Redbridge.

Anyone caught dumping their rubbish in the borough now faces a £1000 on the spot fine for fly-tipping.

The hard-hitting fine was introduced following a change to legislation, and in response to community feedback, including a boroughwide survey which revealed that clean and tidy neighbourhoods, and tougher action for fly-tipping were among the top priorities for local people.

If you spot a fly-tip in the borough you can easily report it online through the council’s Report It page:  https://www.redbridge.gov.uk/report-it/

All fly tips made known to the council are recorded and investigated, with enforcement action being taken if evidence is found. The council aims to clear all recorded fly-tips on council land and the highway within 24 hours of it being reported.
