Imagine not being able to open the windows in your house, go for a walk in your local park or pop into your local shops without encountering a putrid smell caused by a landfill?

A nearby landfill has long been causing pain and suffering for those in the locality who have been reporting issues like coughs, nosebleeds and sore throats.

With many unable to sell their homes because of the stench, there is a wide campaign to 'Stop the Stink' and have the landfill capped off.
