AN overgrown footpath that was becoming a jungle has had a massive haircut after one villager's appeal.

Mum-of-two Debbie Douch raised the alarm on Facebook that the path she walks every day from Letcombe Regis into Wantage was "dangerously" overgrown.

After she said she had received no response from several local councils, Wantage electricals shop manager Ray Collins heeded the call.

He gathered a small troupe of friends and hacked away at the weeds until the path was clear and safe.

Mrs Douch said: "Ray Collins deserves some recognition for his hard work to get this jungle track back in order."
