Neighbours in south Manchester have told of their fury after piles of rubbish were left strewn across the floor and spilling out of bins as students moved out.
Withington residents said the streets are turned into a dumping ground at the end of each academic year when university students leave for the summer. Photos show bins overflowing and charity shops have been left unable to take donations due to the huge demand.
But many of them have had enough, and are calling on students to “take responsibility” and clean up after themselves, instead of leaving rubbish in heaps in alleys and on roads.
