A group has installed its first five dog waste clean-up stations in South Craven.

Glusburn & Sutton Dog Fouling Focus Group was awarded £3,351 by Craven Council earlier this year to provide 15 stations. Sponsorship has been provided by five businesses.

District councillor Carl Lis said: “This is a really good example of local citizens taking pride in their environment and helping to keep Craven a beautiful place in which to live.

“It’s great that local businesses have also come on board and it shows that we can make a difference to local issues if we all work together.”
