Barking and Dagenham Council CCTV Wall of Shame

Barking and Dagenham Council sets up 'Wall of Shame' to catch and name fly-tippers

10:33 20 December 2017

 

Barking and Dagenham Council are asking the help of the members of the public to name and shame people carrying out grime crimes on CCTV. Identified offenders will be caught and prosecuted.

 

Leader of the council Darren Rodwell said: “We know residents are sick of their borough looking dirty.

 

“We’re getting on top of our street cleaning services to make sure we’re doing our bit, but we also want residents to play their part and take pride in where they live.

 

“No one wants a pile of rubbish dumped on their street and some places are getting fly-tipped week in week out. It’s not fair on residents living there.”

 

“Just recently our enforcement teams have dealt with over 3,000 grime crime cases to help clean up the borough, so that just gives an idea of the scale of the problem.

 

“The Wall of Shame is a way everyone can help do their bit. If you see someone you know doing something they shouldn’t, tell us anonymously.”

 

Several appeals are already live on the ‘Wall of Shame’. Residents who go online and recognise a guilty party are asked to call 0208 724 8898 or email eyesoreandpublichealth@lbbd.gov.uk quoting the reference number on the video.
