A group has installed its first five dog waste clean-up stations.
Glusburn and Sutton Dog Fouling Focus Group was awarded £3,351 by Craven Council earlier this year to provide 15 stations.
Sponsorship has been provided by five businesses to cover the cost of replenishing dog waste bags at the initial sites.
District councillor Carl Lis said: “This is a really good example of local citizens taking pride in their environment and helping to keep Craven a beautiful place in which to live.
“It’s great that local businesses have also come on board and it shows that we can make a difference to local issues if we all work together.”
