Shattered bottles have been piling up on the streets surrounding a Leeds primary school ever since university students returned to the city for their studies, according to a cleaner at the school.
Ann Dutton, 61, has opened up about how “uncomfortable” the shards of glass makes her feel and how “unsuitable” it is for the children who attend. This comes as students have returned in the past month with freshers events thrown across the city.
The University of Leeds and Leeds Beckett University insist the “vast majority” of students act responsibly but admit that no resident should have to suffer their cohort’s anti-social behaviour. The universities have formed a partnership to crack down on such behaviour.
