Following recent reports of anti-social behaviour around Dykes Field in Bolsover, police have increased patrols in the area.
While on patrol last weekend, officers noticed a substantial amount of rubbish thrown on the ground. They called Bolsover District Council and soon returned to the area with litter pickers and bags.

A spokesperson for Bolsover SNT said: “This time gave us the opportunity to speak with the children regarding the recent ASB as well as giving them a sense of pride in doing something positive in the community. We’d like to thank all the children who took time to clear the area.”
