Dog Waste Bins

There has been an ongoing issue with having the dog poo bins around the village emptied by Biffa, the RCC contractors, due to their classification as hazardous waste.

Biffa will, however, empty standard rubbish bins…

The Parish Council have therefore replaced the red dog waste bins with grey rubbish bins.

Could dog owners please use these new bins from now on for poo bags.
