Bushes in the entrance road to Eston Court overgrown and a haven for local youths drinking and in some cases hiding from police, full of rubbish, bottles and cans, have picked up needles for safe disposal there too, car apparently abandoned alongside no tax on it. Will not disclose name as reprisals from this group of youths is common

Updates
Bushes still thick and overgrown, car still there and now without it's number plate.
Car now been removed by police but bushes still not cut back, very overgrown and full of rubbish, would appreciate it if a reminder could be sent to the council please.
Council workmen arrived last week to clear out a kid's "den" in the bushes, but were unable to crawl into the thick overgrowth to remove debris - can BVBC PLEASE cut these bushes down so that they no longer compromise the safety of the elderly and disabled residents, anyone with a tendency to mug or attack anyone has an ideal hiding place there. One of the residents has also informed me that they thought stolen goods had been dumped there and recovered later, as they had seen items that were obviously not rubbish, but when they returned the next morning the items had gone.
