Fly-tipping Action Wales partnership: what we do

Fly-tipping Action Wales is a Welsh Government sponsored partnership coordinated by Natural Resources Wales to help tackle fly-tipping.

Who we are

The all-Wales partnership includes a range of more than fifty organisations working together, including:

• 22 Welsh local authorities
• Natural Resources Wales
• Keep Wales Tidy
• National Park Authorities
• Police and Fire Services
• Housing Associations
• Private land managers
  
  

What we do

Fly-tipping Action Wales mainly supports local authorities, although is open to working with any organisation. 

We provide the following support free of charge:

• Access to our Flymapper system that allows for spatial mapping of fly-tipping incidents, uploading of photos, viewing of hotspots
• Fly-tipping Action Wales enforcement officers can provide advice and guidance on pursuing enforcement actions through training, on the ground support, access to legal advice and equipment loan - such as cameras and trackers
• National campaign and awareness raising materials
• Coordinating regional working groups to bring together organisations that are working towards reducing fly-tipping in Wales
• Providing signage to act as a deterrent and giving advice on preventing fly-tipping on land managed by your organisation (for example target hardening)

We also collate and validate the annual national fly-tipping statistics for Welsh Government and we bring stakeholders together to jointly tackle fly-tipping through the sharing of resources and best practice.
