In an effort to encourage children from an early age to put their litter in the bin, Grayshott Parish Council and local benefactor Phil Bates have teamed up to provide a new, child-friendly litter bin in the children's play area at Lyndon Green in Grayshott.

The new bin, known as the 'Tidy-bear', seems to be proving a huge success and Emma Sleigh confirmed that her children love 'feeding' the bear with litter!
