On arrival there was up to 100 boys and girls aged 12 to 16 years, music playing, some worse for wear with drink.

Sadly fire service also had to be tasked to put out some gorse fires.

This area is very dark, has barbed wire fences, and is beside the river.

Listen I don’t want to be a killjoy, but equally I don’t fancy pulling someone out of the river, and I am sure you agree fire service have more important calls to attend.
