SIX tonnes of rubbish has been cleared from alleyways in Thurrock as part of a joint exercise between Essex Probation Community Payback and Thurrock Council.
Alleyways behind The Broadway and William Street, Little Thurrock, were the focus of the two-day operation on 11 and 12 April which saw six van-loads of rubbish taken away by the council’s street cleaning team.
Community Payback provides unpaid work carried out by convicted offenders. The scheme publicly demonstrates that offenders are giving back something to society and is supported by Thurrock Council.
