Missed Refuse Collection Update

Further to our previous post please see below received today from Cllr Barry Anderson.

Please accept my apologies but we have not been able to recover all the missed waste in the Adel Wood area. We have had numerous vehicle related issues which has prevented us completing all recovery collections.

We have made arrangements for this waste to be recovered first thing in the morning (Friday).

Please accept my apologies for any inconvenience caused. We will instruct the crews to recover all presented waste and all non presented waste as we are aware that some residents will have taken their bins back in to their properties.

Many thanks

Message from Friends of Adel Woods

We had a really good start to the year with over 20 Friends participating in our two events. Mud was cleared and much litter picked and we completed surveying our bird boxes.

The results of the bird box survey were very exciting because almost all of the tit boxes were used and one very interesting find was that one of them had been used by a nuthatch!

Sunday 18th March:
10 am to 12 noon: clearing the Buck Stone and litterpick: meeting in Old Leo’s car park at 9.50 am
