IT’S BECOME a sad fact that community groups across County Donegal have to go out every week to pick up the rubbish left by others.
But the mess left at Callancor Bridge in Drumkeen is probably one of the worst seen in recent years.
Rotting food, newspapers and a whole lot more have been dumped there in recent weeks.
Aidan Guthrie from the area was out on Saturday with local volunteers doing their latest tidy-up.
“It’s incredible what people dump,” he said.
“I cannot imagine what people think when they do this. I just don’t understand it.”
You can help combat this scourge on our countryside.
There are six Litter Wardens employed by Donegal County Council one per Electoral Area (Stranorlar, Donegal Town, Glenties, Milford, Letterkenny and Carndonagh).
If you wish to report illegal dumping contact the Water & Environment Section in your local Public Service Centre. The report will be recorded and details passed onto to the Litter Warden for the area. The Litter warden will then investigate the report.
