Our HOUSEHOLD WASTE AND RECYCLING COLLECTIONS are currently continuing as normal. You can find out more about collection arrangements for your property by typing your postcode into the Search for Your Bin Day box on our Waste and Recycling page or logging on to your My Account Please help our collection crews by minimising the amount of household waste you create. With pressure on services and Waste and Recycling Centre’s temporarily closed please avoid doing any big clear outs at home or undertaking any DIY or garden projects which are likely to generate large amounts of waste. Please do not burn household waste at home. This creates air pollution that could harm people nearby who may already have breathing difficulties due to COVID-19. There is also the danger that fires could get out of control. Fire services around the country are reporting an increase in callouts due to garden fires. Remember to recycle as much you can by following guidance on our website and by condensing it down as much as possible Our WASTE AND RECYCLING CENTRES at Waterloo, Winsel, Manorowen, St David's, Hermon and Crane Cross will re-open for essential use only, with a booking system and under strict new guidelines from 26th May.

SCHOOLS AND CHILDCARE SETTINGS It is vitally important that parents follow Government advice and keep their children at home where possible to help contain the spread of coronavirus (Covid-19). Only send your child to your childcare setting if you have to because your work is critical to the coronavirus response. If you can keep your child safe at home, do so. We have put measures in place to open a limited number of our schools and childcare settings to provide care for children of critical workers and to the most vulnerable children. By vulnerable children we mean those who are supported by social care, have safeguarding and welfare needs (such as those with a child in need plan or a child protection plan) looked after children, young carers, disabled children or those who have a statement of educational needs. Childcare provision for children of critical workers and vulnerable children |
