Dear Sir,
This week Ian Gray’s GATT (Great Aycliffe Tidy Team) spent an hour tackling the bushes between Greenfield and Meadowfield Way.
We mainly found discarded plastic bottles, disposable masks, sweet wrappers and, unbelievably, many bags of dog mess, where owners have gone to the trouble of picking it up and bagging it and then throwing it into bushes.
We have some beautiful green areas around Newton Aycliffe and it’s horrible to see all this mess.
You may not think your one piece of discarded litter makes a difference, but it very much does. Please dispose of your rubbish appropriately!
