As a dog owner, I am a regular user of Beddington Park and, after every sunny weekend, it is always the same – rubbish and litter everywhere.

If you have brought it with you, what is stopping you taking it home?

Even if people do use the bins, the local wildlife will not be able to resist the tasty morsels left behind.

As well as the rubbish, there are the empty wrappers and bottles that blow around the park and into the various ponds.

It is so sad that so many people do not care about their environment.

Finally, there are the lazy dog owners who do not clean up after their dogs – which seems to be worse after weekends too.
