@ Nene Park Litter So a plethora of posts on Tribune Facebook page recently re litter & vandalism & fly tipping on our patch. We know this is a nationwide issue, but pictures relates to a location not too far away from us - Nene Park - their pic of their litter looks terrible! Mandy Yallup
Litter by the river Litter by the river remains an issue. 2 bags full collected first thing including a plastic bag removed from a cow’s mouth! 4 further bags collected by volunteers just now...this is from just one day of sunny weather.
What help can we give the City Council in this respect? Can PCC come up with a plan of action. (or publicise more the plan they already have). I have to say, whenever fly tipping is reported - matter generally dealt with very speedily. Education in the schools is a must but we have to deal with the day-to-day too.
The cows were trying to eat the rubbish as volunteers approached them. Rubbish found floating in the river too! Please help by picking any litter you find...with caution of course.
We have regular dialogue with NP trust Mandy regarding this problem and other issues. You're right of course it is a local and national blight on urban and rural landscapes and education is a big part of any reduction in this regard. It will never be eradicated completely so remedial action needs to be swift and effective, which it generally is. I'll request further intended action updates.

Broken Fence Sometime between 17:00 Thursday and 17:00 Friday this fence to the sandbank near Main Road Etton was vandalised. There were hundreds of water birds on the sand bank Thursday evening but only about half a dozen on Friday. Just hope the birds return again. Paul Bellamy 6
