POLICE in Bude are once again asking people to be mindful of where their children are, after they said they seized a number of cans of beer from an under-aged individual at the weekend.

Officers carried out foot patrol through the dunes and surrounding beach areas on Saturday evening.

Bude Police wrote on Facebook: “Please continue to help us by ensuring that you know where your children are and what they are doing. So far we have met some great young people who are rightly enjoying what our town has to offer.

“What was more concerning was the broken bottle that had been left in the sand by someone. This could have caused a horrific injury to a child or adult.

“The beach and surrounding areas are there to be enjoyed but we all have a responsibility to keep it safe for others to use.

“We love our town, please let’s look after it!”
