Dog fouling
Dog waste should be bagged and can be put in any park's litter bin. All bins are emptied at least once a week.
Report a dog bin that needs emptying
It is an offence not to clean up after your dog when it fouls on public land. This includes:
- pavements
- paths
- playing fields
- grass verges
- gutters
- carriageways
Any person caught not clearing up is committing an offence under The Fouling of Land by Dogs Order 2017 and is liable to receive a fixed penalty notice of £100.
