IN REPLY to Councillor Ben Ord’s letter about grass cutting (HAS, May 30).

I totally agree with him. I am a disabled pensioner who has to use oxygen part of every day.

I have two daughters who live more than three miles away and both have medical conditions.

I am still not able to qualify for grass cutting, although I have had it cut for ten years.

When they do cut it all the grass is left and, as no one picks it up, it stays there until the next time it is cut which is unsightly.

I do pay to have mine cut but should we have to?

Jean Ward, Ferryhill.
