YOUNGSTERS have been helping to encourage tidier habits.
The project, involving children from Guisborough's Laurence Jackson School working with countryside wardens from the Guisborough Branch Walkway and artist Jim Roberts, has created two large, sculpted steel litter bins.
The aims of the project, which included three workshop sessions at the Walkway, was to raise awareness of the litter problem and its effects on habitat and wildlife.
Briony Serginson, countryside warden, said: "We've been delighted with the youngsters' enthusiasm and already we can see that more people are using the bins, so it's been an all-round success."
