The community raised just over £3,000, but Mr Spiers's employer Veolia forbade him from accepting the funds, saying it would have been in breach of its contract with Bromley Council.

Online travel agents On the Beach swooped in last week to boost Mr Spiers's holiday hopes with its "totally non-specific £3,000-holiday competition to Portugal," which dictated the winner had to be aged between 62-64, have the surname Spiers, be a street cleaner in Beckenham and "be loved by the local community".
