A popular Cardiff park was left strewn with litter on Thursday morning after a spell of warm weather saw people flock outside. Bins in Pontcanna Fields were seen overflowing and surrounded by mess, including beer bottles and disposable barbecues.
The litter is a big concern for Gloria Garrington, the assistant manager of Cardiff Riding School, which is located in the parkland. Having worked there for 45 years, Gloria said it was an "ongoing problem" that gets worse in the summer and her staff have to spend a lot of time picking up rubbish dumped on their land.
"Our concern is the horses. We went out the other day to find drinking glasses in the horses' field. We find people have made barbecue fires in our field, and general rubbish is always getting thrown over [our fences]," she said. You can read all our Cardiff stories here.
