🐾 Thank you to all the young artists who entered our 2026 Dog Fouling Awareness Competition!

Our brilliant primary school students have used their creativity to highlight the serious impact that uncollected dog fouling has on our beaches, parks and footpaths. Their messages are powerful — and their artwork is fantastic!

We were delighted to showcase these pieces at two exhibitions in the county, thank you to all artists and art appreciators who joined us! 

We are proud to display the entries on our webpage as a pdf at the bottom of the page.
