14. England’s Great Litter Count How can we maximise take-up? How can local land managers help us? What would you need from us to help you get on board? What would your organisation need from us to ensure corporate sign off, should you wish to participate? What outputs & outcomes would you be looking for? Whose buy-in would you need (internally and externally)? Who else might need to be involved to make it happen? Eyes on dog poo Have you done anything similar in your area? What can we learn from this? Where could you see this working? What are the potential barriers? What would you need from us to help you get on board? What would your organisation need from us to ensure corporate sign off, should you wish to participate? What outputs & outcomes would you be looking for? Whose buy-in would you need (internally and externally)? Who else might need to be involved to make it happen? 14 Workshop task (approx. 20 mins.)
