Don’t let your dogs foul in my churchyard warns St Helens vicar

8:01am Tuesday 19th February 2013 in News

A VICAR is complaining about people who allow their dogs to foul in his churchyard.

Rev Alan Overend of St Aidan’s Church in Billinge writes in his parish magazine: “There has been an increase in dog fouling around the church.

“The church grounds are consecrated land and as such, should be treated with respect.

“Please will all dog owners act responsibly and not allow their animals to foul this area.”

im glad some-one else is complaining about this type of thing ,ive been complaining to st helens council about dog fouling in st helens cemetary and it seems to be falling onto deaf ears,, im looking for a total ban on dogs being allowed into churchyards and cemetarys these places should be places of respect and no respect is being shown what so ever, so come on st helens council why are you not acting ?

Thatto Heath park apparently is full of it,kids went to play and had no chance of running about , considering the dangers to health it is very condemning of the authorities failure to prevent the problem.
