Recycling centres looking better

Keep an eye open for the new look recycling centres at Collier Row Road, and at Prospect Place, Collier Row Lane.

Thanks to a grant from the London Waste and Recycling Board new covers are being installed to make the recycling centres more attractive.

Don’t forget if you recycle at one of the centres and post a selfie you will earn 1,200 Green Points, worth £3, to spend on a wide range of goods or services.

On the beat with Collier Row Police

Each police Safer Neighbourhood Team (SNT) holds meetings where the public can attend, ask questions and get crime prevention advice.

The next meeting is on Wednesday 9 September.
