We missed some streets on Monday due to a number of reasons and planned to collect them today.  Unfortunately, we have been unable to do this and instead we will collect them tomorrow.

A list of our missed streets – that will be collected tomorrow (Wednesday) can be found here

Hot weather can be enjoyable, but it also brings risks - particularly for older people, young children and those with health conditions. Please check in on anyone who may need extra support. Avoid swimming in lakes, rivers or canals unless it’s part of a supervised activity, as open water can be dangerous. Barbecues are not allowed in parks or open spaces during hot weather due to the risk of fires. 

Read our top tips on how to keep you and others safe.
