- The GRAB Trust (Group for Recycling in Argyll and Bute Trust Limited)
Procurement identifier (OCID): ocds-h6vhtk-0563a9
Description
Arrochar, a Scottish beauty spot at Loch Long, was designated a 'litter sink' by the Scottish Government in 2017. The problem of litter gathering at the head of the Loch has been getting worse over decades and has reached a point where it creates a damaging effect on the area, its environment, wildlife, visitors, and on the Local Community. Arrochar is perhaps the most publicised but far from the only 'Litter Sink' in Scotland. Manual mechanical methods are challenging and costly, and so this Challenge seeks to develop new, sustainable ways of tackling a national issue, starting with Arrochar.
