Not by me personally, but this was in the Argus today:
Rubbish continues to build up across the city with reports of homeless people taking it upon themselves to clean the streets.
Resident Angela Cowling, spotted the group cleaning on Western Road.
She said: “I, for one among several while we were waiting at a bus stop, gave money to the cleaning group and I will pay them every time I see them in Brighton.”
A nearby shop worker, who asked not to be named, added: “It's been really heart warming to see. They were saying that they need to sleep in the streets and they want them to be clean.
“They're using the bin bags and going up and down the street picking up litter. After a bit people have started to give them money.
“But they've been going up and down all day and I think it's fantastic.”

Would put this in the weird category.

This is a tremendous tale.
Contrast that with the striking binners stopping members of the public taking their own bags to Hollingbury tip, and calling them scum. That is a bloody disgrace.

I know Hollingbury is a bit rough in places but since when has it been a tip ?

When did this happen?
@Commander has the details. Its something I heard from him.
Given there's no such place as Hollingbury Tip I think @Commander has mis-informed you !
Odd, @KLF said exactly the same thing.

Anyone got details though.
If this has happened I will go there myself with a few black bags.
Ah. I'm always getting those two NEWBIES mixed up.
I'm sure @KLF (not @Commander - my mistake) said Hollingbury. I shall check, and come back to you.

Thanks to Guinness Dave
I did hear that people were going to take their rubbish to the CityClean depot, which is Hollingbury. Perhaps that is where the confusuon has come from?
Ah, yes, I think you're right. Thanks, ali.
