Overgrown shrubs on public footpath has become a haven for vermin. There's a large family of rats living in the bushes and they regularly come out to feed. It's right outside the school entrance and children walk past it regularly. There's dead rats also which can easily spread diseases. Ideally if the overgrown shrub was removed it will eradicate their home-135 Ethel Road, Leicester, LE5 5WB

The area around my grandad's grave is very very overgrown. My poor elderly mother is unable to tend to the grave, she can't get near it. See pictures. Plot number 119. It's dangerous, it's all uneven with ants nests and the clay, she's going to trip. Very disappointing it's been allowed to get out of hand like this -Saffron Hill Cemetery
