Why do people leave so much rubbish? I couldn’t dream of leaving anything behind anywhere let alone on a lovely countryside hill!

Well it’s not great for the volunteers who not only have to clear it up but also put out a fair amount of bin bags for spectators to fill

You'd hope people would have more respect for an area which is either active farmland or a nature reserve and the entire event being unofficial and volunteer organised.
