IT’S great to see more council street workers out and about trying to keep our little town of Darlington tidy, which will be an ongoing requirement due to a few irresponsible people who don’t care less what state our town is kept.

I walk through the South Park most mornings and it’s great to see park wardens trying to keep our park free of rubbish but again it’s the few irresponsible parents with young children who again don’t care less how the park is kept.

Most of the litter is sweet papers and pop bottles/cans – there are plenty of bins about.

But these people I would assume would soon complain if the wardens were not there to pick their rubbish up.

Just to say many thanks to everyone who is trying to keep our town/parks tidy.
