Sadly there has been a lot of dumped rubbish and litter across our area over the past month. The Focus team has been working hard to get it all removed.  Two blackspots cleared so far include rubbish on the green at Pettingrew Close, Walnut Tree and the rubbish bags dumped on Lindisfarne Drive, Monkston. Please let us know if there is dumped rubbish near you.

Street Signs that have received attention after Focus Team action on Walnut Tree recently

Residents are proud of our area – but it’s not helped by illegible and damaged street signs making it hard for people to find their way around!  Recent action by the Focus team includes:

  • Cllr Subhan Shafiq had to chase the Tory council for two months to get the sign in Hindhead Knoll repaired
  • Vaness McPake has had bushes cut back so that the sign on Groundsel Close is visible again
  • Cllr Jenni Ferrans has reported the damaged sign in Tatling Grove – about to fall over!
  • Vanessa McPake has asked for the worn lettering to be replaced on the sign on Juniper Gardens
