Gum Litter Taskforces take to the streets of Ballyjamesduff

GLT has seen gum litter reduce by almost 70% since 2007, via a sustained public engagement and education campaign.

The Gum Litter Taskforce (GLT) took to the streets of Ballyjamesduff on Friday to promote positive gum litter disposal.

As part of its Summer Roadshow campaign, the GLT collaborated with Cavan County Council to promote the importance of proper litter disposal through fun education and awareness initiatives.

These initiatives highlight the negative environmental impacts of gum litter and draw awareness to the €150 gum litter fine.

Welcoming the campaign back to Co Cavan, Cathaoirleach of Cavan County Council, Cllr John Paul Feeley said it's a "great initiative" that generates awareness of the negative impacts of gum litter in a fun and engaging way.

He says Cavan County Council is committed to working with campaigns such as the Gum Litter Taskforce, that promote responsible litter disposal behaviours and result in cleaner communities.
