Litter bugs in Barking and Dagenham should watch out as an environmental charity launches its annual Great Litter Count this week.

Keep Britain Tidy is asking the public to help it find out which brands are the most littered on our streets.

Volunteers can count litter anywhere, at any time and can upload their results using an easy online form.

With this information, the charity is aiming to work with the companies whose products are most often dropped on the ground to reduce waste left by their customers.
