BARNSLEY Council is offering a £250 reward for each piece of information which leads to a successful prosecution as part of its crackdown on graffiti.
Pictures of graffiti from across the borough are being posted to the council’s Facebook page with the public invited to supply information to help identify the culprits
Coun Jenny Platts said: “Graffiti is a horrible blight on our environment. It is criminal damage and unsightly.
“We’ve been doing our best to remove any tags as they appear, but this costs the council time and money that could be used elsewhere.
“We’re working hard to tackle environmental crime and protect the environment with our #EverybodyThink campaign. We’re sharing the photographs on Facebook so that people can tell us if they have any information that could help us find those responsible for spoiling our local area. With a £250 reward on offer, we hope that people will come forward.”
The pictures can be found at the council’s Facebook page.
