As are The Skills Hub, who are carrying out a litter pick in Horsehay on Wednesday as part of their Stepping into Work programme.  More information about becoming a Street Champion and other volunteering opportunities here.

Environmental enforcement – Our enforcement officers have been dealing with a discarded bed frame, divan, mattress and a lot of cardboard. Although it was all left in a communal waste area, it’s far too big for our bin crews to take away. Please use our bulky item collection service, details here.
