WHEN will something be done about the travellers in Dallam?

This time of year, every year, they arrive on the fields on Longshaw Street and stay for ages.

Last year the mess which was left was disgraceful.

Why is nothing being done about it?

Yet again, this is right in the middle of the school holidays so our children cannot use the park or play area at all.

The most annoying thing is this has been going on for years.

It must be costing the council and police thousands of pounds.

But nobody seems to have the backbone to make any changes.

I am fed up of our lives being blighted every summer.

So please get something done.

Otherwise next August, it will be the same again with dozens of caravans driving on at night and staying for days and days.
