THERE are a few of us in Riddlesden who really care about the area in which we live and spend a lot of time litter picking.

I would like to appeal to your readers not to throw rubbish out of car windows as they reach Riddlesden, having bought food and drink in Keighley.

Last year, I picked up about 40 bags of rubbish and walked more than 100 miles doing so. So far this year, I have picked up six bags!

The most worrying aspect of this is all the empty alcohol containers I pick up. I only hope it’s the passengers drinking and not the drivers!
