'Our community is a giant bin' say campaigners in Normanton where clinical refuse has piled up at waste site
Members of a two-decade-old environmental campaign group say their community has become a dumping ground. Laura Drysdale reports.
A group of campaigners from the former West Yorkshire mining town of Normanton and its neighbouring village of Altofts are fed up. They say their community “has become a dump – and nobody seems to care”.
The area has hit the headlines in recent weeks after it emerged a backlog of clinical refuse had piled up at a waste site in the town.
