‘There is no need’ says Sunderland City Council as they share the video and pictures of the mess on social media.
The mess was caused just days after teams worked tirelessly to prepare the coastline for the Bank Holiday weekend – cleaning benches, tidying shrub beds and preparing the reopening of the pier.

But days later, on Tuesday evening (June 1), toilet paper was left scattered along the promenade and those responsible have been condemned by the council who then had to clear the mess.
The council is also appealing for anyone with any information about this incident to report it on their website at www.sunderland.gov.uk/report-it
A spokesman for Sunderland City Council said: “There is no need, last Friday we posted a video of our crews working hard cleaning the sea front in preparation for people visiting the beach over the bank holiday weekend.
