Where We Live

Welcome to the Where We Live campaign webpage.

Here you can learn about our campaign to encourage residents and community groups to work with us to make Havering a cleaner and safer place to be and empower communities to take pride in Where We Live. 

You can read the latest news and learn more about how we are working hard to keep the borough clean, safe and tidy.

Find out how to get involved in clean-up events and community groups working in your area.

You can also find links to report litter and fly-tipping and let us know about a local ‘grot spot’ (pockets of unused and waste land) which you would like to clean up or adopt as a community pocket garden.

Also don’t forget to check out our campaign gallery which features pictures of all the great action taking place across the borough.

Together, let’s love Where We Live.

Adopt a Grot Spot

Tell us about any small pockets of unused and waste land in your area such as verges that are always driven over, patches of grass that are forgotten and overgrown which you would like to clean-up and / or adopt as a community green space or garden. 

We can help you identify the owners of this land and link you with community groups to bring these spaces back to life. 

Tell us about a spot

Start a litter pick

Anybody can borrow litter picking equipment from us to carry out their own litter picks in the local community.
