People urged not to litter beauty spots during lockdown
People are being urged to take their litter home while visiting parks and nature reserves.
Gareth Ellis, a Carlisle City Councillor for Belah and Kingmoor, said in just one morning at one entrance of Kingmoor Nature Reserve, he collected two large bags of litter.
He said: “During lockdown there has been an increase in people using parks and nature reserves, unfortunately that has come with an increase in people littering.
“But we all must do our bit. Take your litter home, pick up dog mess and put it in a bin.
