We wish to confirm that Adel Crag Association passed on your complaints to Cllr Anderson about another missed black/green wheelie bin collection today (Tuesday 4th).

Local People and Friends help the Residents to Clear the Snow on Wayland Croft Estate

A sense of real community spirit happened recently on the Wayland Croft Estate (sheltered housing complex).  Many local residents and friends worked extremely hard to clear the snow away to help the infirm and elderly to get out and about to the local shop.  A resident who lives in Adel Wood Gardens also went over to Wayland Croft to offer his services and worked extremely hard.

Also some local residents were seen clearing the snow away for an ambulance driver to access a patient nearby.

It was noted that some areas may have done better had the gritters and snow plough assisted to ease the situation where there is a sheltered housing complex situated on a hill.

So a big “thank you” to all those who participated clearing the snow away which is something to be proud of in times like this which again has given a sense of real community spirit.

This information has been forwarded to Cllr Barry Anderson for his attention.
