Quaint and quirky offerings of Wesley Street and Lord Street in #Southport to the hustle and bustle of South Road in #Crosby #Bootle Strand shopping centre has it all and #Formby village is beautiful.

Sefton is home to many beautiful and picturesque spots and we want to keep it that way. We actively encourage both visitors and residents alike to make sure they are responsible for their own rubbish and dispose of it in a sensible manner.

If you cannot find a bin to dispose of your rubbish responsibly, please take it home with you.
