The never ending battle against litter louts......
I was walking down the Cudworth bypass on a sunny Saturday morning in March and was heartened to see only a solitary bag of collected litter along the full stretch of road, and not the usual bag every 20 metres or so. Are the groups of dedicated volunteer litter pickers who tirelessly tidy up our neighbourhoods finally getting on top of the problem? I think not!
I was quickly reminded that this is a never ending battle against the scumbags that simply couldn't care less about about our environment. It would appear that what probably amounts to the remains of a full family meal from McDonalds had been discarded along the roadside.
Barnsley Council Enforcement Officers can issue fines and other penalties for deliberate littering. If you'd like to know more, or you're interested in volunteering, here's the link:
