Dacorum Borough Council also visited primary schools and Scouts groups to teach children about the problems litter causes, such as damage to wildlife and the environment, and the importance of recycling rubbish.
Portfolio holder for environment sustainability, Janice Marshall, said: “A huge thank you to all those involved for your hard work taking part in the Great British Spring Clean.
“Your actions have not only helped to keep our neighbourhoods clean and tidy, but act as an inspiration to others to keep our areas clean in future.”
