July 16 2019 Draft Minutes

There is no Parish Council meeting in August.

The next meeting will be on Tuesday 17th September 2019.

South Norfolk District Council would like to tell you about a drive to help Parishes remain clean & tidy and encourage community participation, they are looking for councils, community centres or groups to act as hubs for the provision of litter picking equipment throughout South Norfolk.

Please see the link to the document for more information. Essentially it would involve storing a small supply of equipment that is available for groups to borrow without having to travel to South Norfolk Council to pick them up. litter pick equipment hub

On a separate but related note , South Norfolk have received some grant money to allow community groups to have their own equipment – up to £200 worth of equipment can be claimed free of charge – please see the link for the application form. Litter Pick equipment grant application

If you have any questions regarding either of these ideas, please let me know.

Kind regards

Lisa
