Graffiti Removal

The Birkenhead Northcote Community Facilities Trusts Graffiti Removal Programme has officially been in operation since 1990, and is seen as one of the successful programmes that continue to keep a community free of tagging.

The Trust will maintain a tag free Birkenhead and Northcote community for both residents and visitors at all times.
