minister, prime minister, home secretary and justice secretary, and in the aftermath of that meeting, keir starmer said that the police have their full support to take action against what he called extremists who are attacking police officers, disrupting local businesses and attempting to so hated by intimidating communities. they have been trying to get ahead of all of this for several days now, bringing together police forces on thursday, encouraging them to share intelligence, talking about using facial recognition to stop perpetrators from travelling around the country. i have also brought in extra prosecutors this weekend. the idea being that if people can see that some people are being charged for these offences, that might make them think twice about whether to go out and commit violent offences on the streets. so the language that we are hearing from government is really quite tough, but there is clearly still quite a lot of work to do to stop this violence from

spreading and also to ensure that people who have been targeted feel safe. hannah miller therefore the today the lebanese militant group hezbollah says it has launched dozens of rockets into northern israel. the israeli military says most of them were in —— intercepted and there were no casualties. the uk government has called for british nationals in lebanon to leave immediately, wanting the situation could deteriorate rapidly. after the political leader of hamas was killed on wednesday. a woman who complained to the bbc twice about the former broadcaster hugh edwards is having therapy paid for by the corporation. the sunday times says that a woman or rachel struck up a friendship with edwards over social media in 2018. she complained about him to the bbc twice, alleging the relationship was becoming toxic. the bbc spokesman said he has always investigated complaints fully and provided support to those involved was operable because it is making

england and wales staying dry for a good part of the day for the best of any sunshine toward the south and east, not as warm as recent days. waking up to a much fresher start. 23 degrees in london. we have the heavy rain setting in, temperatures mid to high teens here in the rain will be quite persistent late on into the evening and overnight as well. it will turn particularly windy. we could see just up to 45 miles an hour in the far north—west of scotland. england and wales staying largely dry tonight. temperatures down to 12 degrees or so but a milder night further north where you have cloud and outbreaks of rain around. that theme will stick around into monday so this cold front moving into the north—west, quite slow—moving so rain is mounting up. wins coming from a south or southwesterly direction ahead of the cold fronts of that will bring us warmer, more humid airthrough of that will bring us warmer, more humid air through the north of monday. rain will be heavy we could

say 50 75 millimetres of rain across west of scotland, some localised flooding. even later on particularly for northern ireland coming in wales again mostly dry and we will see highs of 25, 20 six degrees tomorrow, warmer than today. typically high teens or low 20s towards the north. we still have low pressure across the north—west as we head into tuesday. this weather fundamentally moves its way gradually eastwards across england and wales but tending to ease away with a few showers left, a bit of cloud. heading towards the southeast, behind that i returned to sunshine, fresher conditions and blustery showers moving into the north—west. temperature is pretty typical for north—west. temperature is pretty typicalfor this north—west. temperature is pretty typical for this stage in august. eyes around for being 25 north to south on tuesday. similar on wednesday, the cold front clear the way to the east so we have a westerly flow of air bringing sunshine and showers for most. and more persistent rain across west of scotland. further south, more persistent rain across west of scotland. furthersouth, higher scotland. further south, higher pressure, scotland. furthersouth, higher pressure, so looking generally try

now with help from michaela and alice at community bees, the house is slowly being cleared. the company works with the most isolated and loneliest of people, and that is people that are hoarders mainly. i want to write a book. she listened and she didn't try to control me. she let you talk and go through it and that has worked for me rather than people saying they clear you in a couple of days. hoarding is a complex condition. john buys newspapers and cuddly toys that stay in their boxes. it started after his mother died due to a mixup, john didn't get to the hospital in time. i lost a bit of focus in that because i thought, you know, my mother and father, we were a very close family, i was there for my dad and not for my mother. i should have been there. that was part of a thing of punishing yourself, you are never

forgiving yourself. with us working on a one—to—one, very slowly, understanding and letting them talk if they want to talk, we don't ask questions. it is entirely up to them if they want to talk, and having a laugh with them as we go, it works. john is slowly changing his mindset and feels optimistic that he can get better with support. just put these in the drive. lottery money given to them will help them trap others doesn't help them trap by positions i no longer need or want. let's look at what's on the front of today's newspapers, starting with the 0bservatory, it says ministers want writers to pay the price for violent that was seen across the country over the last few days, it is calling the worst outbreak of civil disorder in britain for more than a decade. it means the courts could sit for 24 hours earlier to help us track the sentencing of

those responsible, the sunday telegraph suggesting the ministry of justice is in discussions with the judiciary about keeping magistrates courts open all night to help deal with that unexpected surge in the number of people currently in custody. the times has a story about if you —— fewer teenagers choosing to study for degree as looks at a drop in the applications for the second year in a row, the sunday mirror back pages it is cold for team gb robers but the triple 0lympian gymnast vows out without a medal and what is his last ever games. it can be frustrating if you go out for a walk and instead of looking up and enjoying the views and fresh air you have to keep your head down and i on whether step you have to keep your head down and ion whether step on any dog dirt. pet owners and a popular beauty spot in lincolnshire told they had to clean up or risk losing access altogether as our reporter courts.

out a new relationship with the sea. really what i want is for the community to get in touch with the ocean because that is the only way we will take care of the ocean. and... i come face—to—face with one of the giants of this unique marine environment. is that a whale? wow! iam i am starting myjourney on the island of hispaniola, shared by haiti and the dominican republic. this is my first time ever in the caribbean. iam in this is my first time ever in the caribbean. i am in the dominican republic in the capital city santo domingo and it actually feels quite european. in fact, this is the oldest cathedral in all of the americas and it was built nearly 500 years ago. it is a legacy of the

spanish variety of ice each in the late 15th century. spearheaded by christopher columbus on his maiden voyage to the region. spain became the first european colonisers in the americas was also decimating the indigenous population. centuries later, the spanish legacy is still very strong. when it comes to music, on this island, you won't hear much reggae. instead, it is the more latin feel of merengue and the chatter. i am latin feel of merengue and the chatter. iam meeting latin feel of merengue and the chatter. i am meeting the country was making of music. it actually originates from the dominican republic?

singing as well as his spanish roots, it is thought it is few strong influence from the enslaved africans who were brought here and the indigenous people who were displaced during colonisation. it's infectious

melodies and attract passers—by. singing yeah, ithink yeah, i think especially back home in the uk, whenever you think of the caribbean, it is barbados, jamaica. i am mixed caribbean, it is barbados, jamaica. iam mixed race caribbean, it is barbados, jamaica. i am mixed race and jamaican farmer, british mother, it has opened my eyes up to the spanish culture and the latin influences. but what draws most people to the caribbean are the incredible beaches and extraordinary maline life. the dominican republic boasts over a thousand kilometres of coastline, attracting some 10

million visitors in 2023. that is more than any other caribbean destination. i am more than any other caribbean destination. iam heading north more than any other caribbean destination. i am heading north to a seaside town that has become world famous. i am told a few decades ago, the small fishing village, it has completely transformed, and that is because this part of the coastline is in the right spot to capture the strong currents from the north in the winter and the constant trade winds from the east. this creates the perfect wave, and now, attract surfers from across the world. you can find every type of water sport here, from windsurfing to paddleboarding. and right now, cabarete is hosting its annual global event, master of the ocean, and i'm meeting the current champion, brian talma. brian! it's de action man. de action man! how you doing, man? yes, brother. respect, respect.

0h, dude, respect. so, you're going for back—to—back titles this year? well, i'm going to try, you know? this event is amazing because we do all the sports and all the sports i love — windsurf, kitesurf, foil and everything. originally from barbados, brian arrived here in the �*80s, becoming one of the pioneers of water sports. back then, there were literally only a handful of people taking part. this is essentially, like, your life. this is what you do every day. from when i was, like, eight, nine, that's all i did — surf in barbados. i surfed every day. and then it went from surfing to the other sports. but the thing about it, it's pretty easy and the sensation is amazing. and the good thing is i'm going to get you part of the action. pre—warning — i've never surfed in my life, so this is — this is going to be pretty bad, i'm just telling you now. you know what it's like? it's just like getting up, waking up, standing up.

look where you're going and go for it. all right, come on, then. let's go, action. now, what you're going to do is once you're up, you're going to bend the knees. make sense? yeah. it's always interesting when you try something new for the first time. definitely one of those moments when you are outside your comfort zone. it's a lot more tiring than i thought it was going to be. after the first, like, three, suddenly you get crashed into the water and then you're like... exhales sharply .."here we go again." and then, you get back up. brian's like, "come back, reece! come back!" and you're like... exhales sharply "hok!" i couldn't have asked for a better teacher. i am a surfer. i'm a surfer! you got up, you rode a few waves — success! action! brother, thank you, dude.

action! whilst adrenaline—fuelled water sports are a key part of the championships, there's a wider aim — to engage the local community. lively drumming caribbean culture, for those that live in the region, hasn't always been based around beach time — most leisure activities are targeted towards visitors. as tourists, we come over and we're like, "of course, we're going to try and surf. "of course we're going to swim." you know, that's different. that's not the case for a lot of the locals. ..para poder asistir a cualquier persona en la playa. but organisers want to change that by launching initiatives that teach dominicans water skills. i'm meeting the team coordinating the event, patricia hiraldo and marcus bohm. 0ur so, has the event br 0ur ought more of the community into water sports? definitely. i think the event really awakens the mind of the children and the youth

because, of course, they're looking to compete and they're looking to shine. we realised that eight out of ten children don't know how to swim and we're an island surrounded by water on three sides and it's an economy thriving on water sports. and we have a theory that if your parents don't know how to swim, there's not a culture of swimming. so, you cannot change the adults' mind but you can change the children's mind. they are training since a few years on swimming. really, what i want is for the community to get in touch with the ocean because that's the only way we're going to take care of the ocean. 0k, esta bien. beyond enjoying the water, patricia and marcus hope to empower the next generation to improve safety. what we want to do is create a situation and that we have a culture of lifeguarding, which we don't have, like in australia or florida or hawaii. we usually bring trainers from the usa or canada. so, we trained over 70 lifeguards and we trained over 20 lifeguard instructors but our dream is to create

a situation where we go island—wide. un aplauso! applause. applause. amazing day here at cabarete, and i have always been obsessed with the sea. but what's really great is that now, the locals are connecting with the oceans in ways that they haven't really done before. and considering that over half the population are under 30, i can only imagine the positive impact that it's going to have on future generations. next, i'm heading some 200km along the coast to samana peninsula, a thin strip of land poking out of the north—east of the island. and something else that stands out here is a distinctive wooden church and a

little—known history dating back two centuries. hey, how are you? wilfredo. wilfredo, how are you? reece. good to meet you. the pastor. hi, great to meet you! will kelly, pastorjerlin feliz diaz and the congregation at st peter's church are descendants of african—american former slaves. having won their freedom, they opted to emigrate here from the united states at a time when haiti briefly controlled the whole island of hispaniola. when the dominican republic regained the country, much of the african—american population remained. hi! norma. reece. good to meet you. this church has quite the cultural mix. yes, that's right. my family, they came from philadelphia — exactly — straight from philadelphia to samana 1824.

around 300 people made that first journey by sea from the north—eastern states, enticed by the offer of free land and a chance of a new life. haiti's mission was to consolidate their power by boosting its population. the haitian president talked with the united states president — "oh, i need some people, "like carpenter and bakery. "they build boat, fishing, agriculture." and my family, they felt happy when they tried to make deal with them. they say, "no, no, no — let me try, let me try. "let me go." because they don't felt so free. so, clearly, there wasn't enough opportunity in america for them to feel like they were really going to progress, so when they heard about this in philadelphia and the first few hundred came over, not knowing the island or knowing anyone here, ifound it so profound

that they were willing to take that huge life risk. despite living on a spanish—speaking island, this enclave fiercely clung onto their heritage, with some services held in english and the hymns they brought over centuries ago still ringing out. # give me that old—time religion. # it's good enough for me. # it was good for my dear mother. # it was good for my dear mother... i didn't expect to hear gospel in the dominican republic, and the lengths that they have clearly gone through to pass it down, generation by generation, the history that they have, they have so much pride in making sure that that part of their history and culture is still represented. and, i mean, whata way to represent it than a church that's 200 years old? but the community who built st peter's were relative newcomers compared to some other locals who've been coming here for some 50,000 years.

as you can see, there is the atlantic ocean, and these are some of the most important waters for sea mammals breeding in the whole world. the waters around samana bay are the most popular place for whale—watching in the caribbean. from january to march — whale season — tourists arrive in their droves. it's also where scientists can study the animals' behaviours. hey, hey! i'm meeting a team led by rita sellares and marvin del cid from the dominican foundation for marine studies. their work informs the country's marine policies. so, today, we are going to see the humpback whales and do some monitoring, so it's going to be an exciting day. every year, thousands of humpback whales swim epic distances on their annual migration. part of our role during

the season is come and collect some of the data of the behaviour and the number of whales and the tails of the whales. so, rainer is part of our team of technicians. it's his first time seeing the whales. ah, first time? we're together on this. afterfeeding in the north atlantic over summer, come winter, the humpbacks embark on a six—week commute south to the warmer waters of samana for breeding. so, i will try to fly the drone over the whales and try to take pictures and film some kind of behaviour, the behaviour of the whales. see what they're doing. the relationship of the mother with the calf or whatever. i thought whale—watching would be relaxing. esperate, capi! shouting. i wasn't expecting quite such a bumpy ride.

so, rita, you told me before i got on here to take a pill for seasickness, right? which i didn't. yes! am i an idiot? laughs. maybe. it's super relaxing and calm! you've just got to ride the wave. don't try and resist the wave. it's all about being — being calm and don't panic! the vast majority of north atlantic humpbacks are born in these waters and it doesn't take long for my first sighting. yeah, yeah! hey, hey! music swells. oh, yeah! laughs excitedly. i saw that! i saw it! rainer, mira la ballena! some measure up to 60ft long — almost the size of two school

buses — and can weigh a whopping 30 tonnes. we are seeing with the images of the drone that probably, that is a female because we have the males kind of fighting, hitting each other, and it's part of the reproductive behaviour. then, the female is going to choose one of the males and then, after the copulation here, she's going to travel back to the us or the north coast, will feed and then, coming back next year to have the baby here in the bay. so, that's why we say that the whales are dominican because they are born here. here. the females go through almost a year—long pregnancy before giving birth. ok, let's see. as for me, the choppy seas are starting to have an effect. oh, man! actually, i'm feeling pretty sick. but it seems rita has a plan b.

screams. laughter. laughs. are you feeling better? rita! what?! laughs. i'm so sorry! i'm feeling so much better now, rita! thank you! muchas gracias! 0h, 0k, right. yeah. i'm back. while the conditions here proved a little rough for me, the bay�*s deep waters are perfect for humpbacks. in 1986, strict guidelines were put in to protect the area, and samana became one of the first sanctuaries of its kind in the world. humpback whales command deep admiration here. but there's another animal found in these waters that's perhaps been less well loved or understood until recently — the manatee. these enigmatic creatures are typically around 10ft long

and weigh about a ton. studies into their behaviour forms the bigger part of rita and marvin's work. hola! and once i've got over my seasickness, i'm back to hear about their research. we started monitoring manatees in 2006 in bayahibe. we were really worried about the number of manatees left in the country because we started to see that we had a lot of strandings of animals — like, an average between six and ten per year — that animals that were dying in the beach. just like the whales, there used to be thousands of manatees around these shores but numbers are dangerously dwindling due to fishing, hunting and shipping accidents. we only have left around 100 of animals. 100?! yeah. marvin is going to fly the drone and try to find the manatees. so, once he sees the manatees, we are going to register

the time, the height and the data of identification of each manatee. so, rainer is a drone assistant. so, let's go, rainer. yes, let's go, rainer. uno... ah! barks. from above, the manatees are not as easy to spot as the whales were. he has a really good eye and he has a really good eye, too. youreyes? mine, they are ok. laughs. hay otro manati! hay otro al lado. we have two manatees. three, three, three! three? three manatees, yes. this is a baby manatee. this is important that we found babies because you know they are reproducing. and you can see now the calf and the mum. you can see that they can be apart from each other — not too much. but when it's a new baby, it stays all the time with the mum. and now, it can get a little bit far, yeah. oh, you can see his face!

yeah. here, there is a population of ten animals, more or less — 10—11 animals. i think it's an amazing animal. it's really calm, it's never aggressive, so, i really like them. so, we want to check the temperature and the water conditions, just to see that everything is ok for the animals. one area where the team have seen some real progress is with public perception. so, now, there is a huge awareness in the country, thanks to juanita. there is a huge story behind juanita. this is juanita. wow! uh—huh. and you can see the tag. juanita was a manatee rescued after an attack from a fisherman. her plight, along with two other rescues, pepe and lupita, really sparked the imagination of dominicans. she was rehabilitated at the national aquarium and then reintroduced into the wild in 2020. is this you?

yeah, that's me, that's me. and it's really nice, because — so, i saw her when she was born in bayahibe, so, for me, this was a happy moment to see her after eight years, free into the ocean and doing what she likes and seeing that she was really well adapted. it's inspiring to see how people like rita are gradually transforming public awareness here. the aim is that more dominicans will start to develop closer relationships with the sea and the unique marine life that surrounds them. so, i think that people's mind has changed a lot. people is more connected to the sea. it's not only manatees — so, it's the marine ecosystems and it's something that we need to save and protect.

hello. good morning. it is seven o'clock. this is breakfast with me, ben thompson. please have warned of mortars were linked to the far right in the coming days after a wave of violence through towns and cities yesterday. meanwhile, church services will be held in southport later to remember the three girls killed in a knife attack almost a week ago. tensions rise in the middle east as hezbollah launches dozens of rockets at israel overnight. britain and the us urge their nationals to leave lebanon as soon as possible.

sir keir starmer, said the police have the government's full support to take action against extremists attempting to sow hate. the home secretary has also warned that anyone engaging in unacceptable disorder will pay the price. criminal violence and disorder has no place on britain's streets. we've been clear to the police that they have our full backing in taking the strongest possible action against perpetrators, including when making sure that there are more prosecutors, there are sufficient prison places and also that the courts stand ready, because anyone who engages in this kind of disorder needs to be clear that they will pay the price. families expecting a trip to the beach in blackpool were met with these scenes. people shouting islamophobic and anti—immigration chants,

and anti—racism protesters faced off in tense scenes outside city hall. police in riot gear were deployed. not all demonstrations held across the uk descended into violence, and in many places, protesters dispersed by the evening. but with fears of more protests today, there are worries that more shocking images like this treatment of a police motorbike rider could emerge. greg mckenzie, bbc news. the prime minister says there is no excuse for the violence that has been taking place. he says the police have his full support to tackle extremists attempting to sow h. it's turned to a political correspondent, shelley phelps. it is a clear message coming from the government, isn't it? absolutely. as we were just — government, isn't it? absolutely. as we were just hearing _ government, isn't it? absolutely. as we were just hearing where - government, isn't it? absolutely. as we were just hearing where we - government, isn't it? absolutely. as| we were just hearing where we heard from the home secretary yvette cooper who is extremely keen to push home his point on the consequences that people will face if they take part in criminal activity. she is

they are able to give, we are also warned that there may be a repeat of this, there may be further protest in days to come. how long can the police keep up this level of policing?— police keep up this level of ttolicin ? . .., ~ , policing? we will continue keeping u . policing? we will continue keeping u- this policing? we will continue keeping op this level _ policing? we will continue keeping up this level of _ policing? we will continue keeping up this level of policing _ policing? we will continue keeping up this level of policing for - policing? we will continue keeping up this level of policing for as - up this level of policing for as long as it takes, we need to stop and we needed to stop immediately. it is easy to say. but we will mobilise whenever we need, we are 24 — seven 365 days of the year, on the understanding we don't have an infinite number of police officers, they are working back—to—back shifts, extended hours, and their morale and well being is being affected. so we need the community, we need the public to get behind the police, to get behind the call for this to stop so we can actually get back to doing the important, day to day policing and supporting victims of out there. the day policing and supporting victims of out there-— of out there. the prime minister said there _ of out there. the prime minister said there is _ of out there. the prime minister said there is no _ of out there. the prime minister said there is no excuse -

a cost implication for the issue is not so much going abroad, going abroad where the main drivers price, if you compare an operation costing £2000 you have to ask the question what are they missing out on what safety net do they not provide, its like buying a car without insurance it may be cheaper but not safer. is it may be cheaper but not safer. is it that the uk is especially expensive or as is places like turkey are especially cheap? ii expensive or as is places like turkey are especially cheap? if you look at some _ turkey are especially cheap? if you look at some of— turkey are especially cheap? if you look at some of the _ turkey are especially cheap? if you look at some of the institutions - look at some of the institutions costs are comparable to the uk for talk about the £2000 figure it tends to be institutions that are avoiding some of the standard safety articles full top one of the challenges and we talked about this and other fields, dentistry and people going to turkey to have teeth fixed on that causing further problems. does one thint that causing further problems. does one thing with _ that causing further problems. does one thing with dentistry that may be uncomfortable or it may be damaging

find out what happens today. good to see you and thank you very much. remembrance services will take place across churches in southport to remember victims of the attack. the victims died after being stabbed at a tailored suit themed dance class. five other children were injured along with two adults we are joined by reverend marianne kent. thank you for being with us this morning. tell me a little about the importance of these memorial services that will take place in southport today. i thought the churches would be open to welcome everybody. those of faith and those with no faith to bs a safe space that we are feeling or we are feeling today, the anxiety, the numbness, the fear and the grief, and everybody is welcome, whatever

build a better world for our young people as they grow up. this trauma in their lives, for the rest of their lives, and for the adults of calls as well, and those living in fear at the moment because of the threat of violence again here. latte threat of violence again here. we are 'ust threat of violence again here. we are just looking up from london arejust looking up from london landmark lit up pink as well, as you said, a reflection of what happened in southport and how, in a strange way, it brings people together, the community coming together. we were there where you were a little earlier with the flowers in the teddy bears and cards and letters that have been left to the community. how important has been for the community to be able to come together in that manner and to see such a public tribute there, to what went on a week ago? i such a public tribute there, to what went on a week ago?— went on a week ago? i think it is treat to went on a week ago? i think it is great to see _ went on a week ago? i think it is great to see the _ went on a week ago? i think it is great to see the public _ went on a week ago? i think it is great to see the public here - went on a week ago? i think it is great to see the public here and| great to see the public here and that the schools and where the little girls went, but it is far, far greater than what we can see here, it is all the people who came out to clean the roads after the

attack on the mosque, it all the people who drop off chocolate and flowers at the mosque and for the police and there were so many acts of kindness going on in southport. everyone is doing what they can, whether it is making cards to leave out the sides or making cakes or bringing toast down, water down to the press cruise around, southport has really pulled together and every act of kindness is saying we are against this height, we are against this violence. are you hopeful in a strange way, out of something so horrific and so tragic there could be some kind of community healing and something that brings together that has a lasting legacy there?— brings together that has a lasting leta there? ~ , , ., legacy there? absolutely, christian faith is based _ legacy there? absolutely, christian faith is based on _ legacy there? absolutely, christian faith is based on death _ legacy there? absolutely, christian faith is based on death and - faith is based on death and resurrection about the light shining in the darkness, it's all about what we do from here and it was brilliant

to be with our muslim brothers and sisters on friday night with imam sue came to support the mosque on friday to lay flowers together and i think there will be a lasting legacy of working closely together, to build community and to support one another. yes, we should not have to have horrific events like this but i think there was a very strong commitment in southport that we will be a better place because of it. we will be a kinder place because of it and kindness and love will always win through. and kindness and love will always win through-— and kindness and love will always win throuth. a, ., win through. reverend marianne kent, tood to win through. reverend marianne kent, good to have — win through. reverend marianne kent, good to have you _ win through. reverend marianne kent, good to have you with _ win through. reverend marianne kent, good to have you with us _ win through. reverend marianne kent, good to have you with us this - good to have you with us this morning. i hope everything goes well there today. the time just after quarter to eight, let's talk to sarah because she will look at the rest of the weekend weather. the, sarah because she will look at the rest of the weekend weather. a mixed da out rest of the weekend weather. a mixed day out there. — rest of the weekend weather. a mixed day out there, some _ rest of the weekend weather. a mixed day out there, some of _ rest of the weekend weather. a mixed day out there, some of us _ rest of the weekend weather. a mixed day out there, some of us have - rest of the weekend weather. a mixed day out there, some of us have got i day out there, some of us have got some sunshine, blue sky and the east

and enjoying the fresh air you have to keep your eyes on the ground so you don't step on anything. pet owners at a popular beauty spot in lincolnshire had been told to clean up lincolnshire had been told to clean up their dog mess or risk losing access altogether. it's one of the country's best loved—beauty spots in the heart of lincolnshire. popular for walking and picnics. but there's one issue here at oslers' plantation, forestry england says the woodland's become a health hazard because so many irresponsible dog owners aren't cleaning up after their pets. they've temporarily closed the car park and have called in specialist cleaners. it's notjust an issue in the car park but when you enter the forest, you've got to be careful where you walk as there are quite a few piles of dog mess along here. and visitors seem to have got the message. it might be the summer holidays and one of the sunniest days of the year but it has been very quiet at the forest today. but i did spot one family. a place where people

bring their kids, their whole family it's not, people need to take care of their pets a lot better. it is notjust people leaving their dog mess, come have bagged it up butjust dump it. people at the spa town nearby have heard about the problem. it's worse when they put it in a plastic bag and just throw it, that makes it worse. it is not biodegradable. with kids running around on bikes you don't want to go through dog mess. if you have a dog, you must accept responsibility for clearing up. - i thought that was common sense. surely, this day and age people do that. j i would have though the majority do but clearly people don't. _ one of the problems is there are no bins in the woodland but forestry england says that is down to cost and them being a threat to wildlife. to put a bin in there would be hugely costly and resource—heavy. we could not empty it all the time and it would be overflowing and cause further complaints and health hazard. it's not our policy so if people

don't take their waste away with them we can't afford to keep carrying out these sort of cleansing operations. it's been a week since forestry england shut the car park to the woodland and they haven't said when it will be open but they have warned it could be permanent if the situation doesn't improve. quite the warning there. elsewhere millions of people in the uk are believed to be hoarders but a small fraction of those affected ever get help they need. in york a community group is helping people de— clutter and it has recently been awarded £400,000 to continue their vital work. our report has been finding out. alex is going to start putting newspapers in. are we all rightjust putting newspapers in? nothing in the newspapers? happy with that? yes. it should be his lounge but the rooms injohn wilson's house have become unrecognisable, submerged in clutter

and rubbish. if i see in my lovely mush, once a fortnight, we will keep on top of it. now, with help from michaela and alice at community bees, the house is slowly being cleared. the company works with the most isolated and loneliest of people, and that is people that are hoarders, mainly. i want to write a book. you want to write a book? she listened and she didn't try to control me. she let you talk and go through it and that has worked for me rather than people saying they'll clear you in a couple of days. hoarding is a complex condition. john buys newspapers he never reads and cuddly toys that stay in their boxes. it started after his mother died. due to a mix—up, john didn't get to the hospital in time. i lost a bit of focus in that because i thought, you know, my mother and father, we were a very close family, i was there for my dad dying and not for my mother. i should have been there

because i promised me dad i'd look after me mum. that was part of a thing of punishing yourself, you are never forgiving yourself. with us working on a one—to—one, very slowly, understanding and letting them talk if they want to talk, we don't ask questions. it is entirely up to them if they want to talk, and having a laugh with them as we go, it works. john is slowly changing his mindset and feels optimistic that he can get better with support. just put these in the drive? lottery money given to community bees will help them help others them trapped by possessions they no longer need or want. cathy killick, bbc news. let's talk to ian porter who is a psychologist from hoarders helping stop a network of supporters for those living with the condition. let's talk with how you define who is a hoarder. a lot of people might
