mess: Babies hand covered in cake

mess: Women cleaning dust
Annabelle Butterworth: "The builders fixing my friend's roof left a lot of mess in her front garden, so we all pitched in by helping to scoop up the leftover sand and bricks with anything we could find"   Photograph: Annabelle Butterworth
mess: rubbish in the water in Brighton
Teresa Lee: "This was the incredible view looking over the sea wall at New Brighton in October last year - you could barely see the water for all the rubbish, seagull feathers and sweet wrappers" Photograph: Teresa Lee
mess: Road signs in Connemara
Greg Jurusik: "When driving around Connemara and trying to find the way, you wish you could tidy up the world" Photograph: Greg Jurusik
mess: crate of ropes and fishing nets

mess: coridoor in an abandoned house
Rob Patrick: "I went for an afternoon walk in the countryside and came across an old abandoned house which was just crying out to be explored. It was a great shame to see what would have been such a majestic building back in its day in such a poor state of disrepair" Photograph: Rob Patrick
