Members of the Rochdale Environmental Action Group (REAG) cleaned the Sudden Brook Park in Deeplish on Saturday 28 February.

The park was littered with cans and bottles, both plastic and glass, and burnt mattress which had caused damage to the ground.

Ghulam Rasul Shahzad OBE, Secretary of REAG said: "We welcome Leader of the Council, Richard Farnell's statement about enforcement of Environmental laws against flytippers and litterers in the Borough of Rochdale.

“We have been saying it for the more than two and a half years because of the amount of litter and rubbish in some parts of the town and persistent behaviour and unchanged attitude of such people, it is important that appropriate action is taken in this respect and they are dealt with in accordance with the law."
