This morning in less than a mile we saw 19 masks thrown on the floor, whilst Mary and I did our walk. There were discarded within steps of the Ashmore Park Covid19 testing station. Not only is it unhealthy and unsightly it is a disgraceful way to rid yourself of your mask! For goodness sake take some pride in the place we all live in.
Councillor Phil Bateman said “in fact I would go so far as to say that Face Mask discards are an abomination! Why is it so many of our community are just throwing them to the floor. What is wrong with you if you do this purposely? Please take them home and dispose of them, or put them in a litter bin.”
