Dog fouling in the village is on the increase and owners are reminded that it is offence for a person in control of a dog not to clear up the dog mess immediately on any land that is open to the air and to which the public is entitled or permitted to have access.

Please also be reminded that Wortwell Parish Council has a byelaw applying to both playing fields and the grounds of the community centre whereby no person in charge of a dog (other than a registered blind person in charge of a dog) shall permit the dog to enter or remain in the grounds.
