Litter is making a '˜horrible mess' of community
and live on Freeview channel 276
Here is a picture of the litter I gathered up this morning from the roadside between the Wick level crossing and the Six Bells pub.
With the exception of a few items which have fallen off passing vehicles, people who live in our community have been responsible for chucking every single item in this heap into the hedge.

We all live together in a beautiful part of the country yet our habit of littering is making a horrible mess of it.
Something which each one of us can do is to pick up the litter outside our own houses.
We can encourage our neighbours to do the same.
No one person should take responsibility for an entire community but I do feel that something very worthwhile can be achieved if we all do a little bit.

Hide AdOne plea to dog walkers: having gathered your dog’s faeces into a small plastic bag, please do not hang it on my or any one else’s fence. That is just gross.
You have the pleasure of owning a dog so please accept the responsibility, too.
Take it home with you and dispose of it yourself.
