Local resident Emily Cross is inviting others to get involved with a litter pick and to help give the playground a lick of paint at local green space Frog's Copse on Saturday, July 18 from 10am.

There's a Facebook event page here with more information and photos of dumped rubbish.

Some of the rubbish recently seen apparently includes:

• remnants of 3 rusted bikes/bike parts
• a mattress and an arm chair
• recycling wheelie bin
• glass, cans and food wrappers
