Dog Fouling: Dog waste is not only unpleasant, it can be harmful to health. It carries bacteria and parasites such as Toxocara Canis, which can cause serious illness in children and adults, including stomach upsets, infections, and even eye damage leading to vision loss. Dog fouling left on paths, parks, and play areas is a risk to everyone in our community. By cleaning up after your dog, you help keep our public spaces safe, healthy, and welcoming for all. Bag it. Bin it. Every time.
Reflection
Christ has no body but yours,
no hands, no feet on earth but yours,
yours are the eyes with which he looks
with compassion on the world,
yours are the feet with which he walks to do good,
yours are the hands,
with which he blesses all the world.
Yours are the hands, yours are the feet,
yours are the eyes, you are his body.
Christ has no body now but yours,
no hands, no feet on earth but yours,
yours are the eyes with which he looks
with compassion on this world.
Christ has no body now on earth but yours.
