Litter Bug
Just as much as the problem of dog poop around the area. The amount of litter which is being left around the area is unbearable for some residences. Residences are finding that the amount of litter which is being dropped or left around the area is from the children and teenagers hanging out around the shops and around the park.
"Children are leaving sweet wrappers laying around the area after buying them from the shops. I think that we should have more bins available for them to throw their litter away." Says Mrs Reed.
However, I feel that adults can be just as much to blame for the litter issues around the area. Due to the amount of cigarette boxes outside the community centre itself. "There are no bins or well not enough bins in the area for me to throw my stuff away. It's not like I am going to leave my rubbish in my pocket I would rather chuck it and if there isn't a bin available for me, on the floor it goes. I don't see a problem with it, loads of people litter these days." Says Mr Lucus.
There should be signs for the penalties that can be occured on the residence of the area or even the children of the area to show them what they could face for littering. However, the community officer's should be knuckling down on this issue due to harmful effects on the wildlife of the area.
