We know dog fouling is an issue in and around Mexborough from footpaths to parks. We'd like to organise a small competition to have some small A4 posters printed of children's designs for a poster designed by them to ask people not to let their dogs foul.

There will be 1st, 2nd and 3rd prize for the winner and runners up. Any child who lives in Mexborough can enter this. We'll run it until the beginning of September 2026 so that the children will have time to design and draw or paint their masterpieces. Then we'll ask local residents and businesses to display our posters. Please can you post them to:-

Mexborough Neighbourhood Network c/o Mrs Gibbons 57 Park Rd, Mexborough, S64 9PH.

This competition is organised solely for the community and not be FB. Entries will be judged by some special folks from Mexborough after the closing day. NB this is for fun.
