🏖️ The Council has experienced a shortness in staff due to members of the team continuing to self-isolate from Covid-19. It has meant public bins are taking longer to empty than expected and extra resource has had to be deployed to the borough’s hotspots.

🚮 Please don’t let a minority of people lead you to believe that community spirit in the borough is not alive and well. Our dedicated litter-pickers are never far behind, and our council teams are working extremely hard to keep our borough clean and tidy.

It's easy... Pack your rubbish up in the bag your brought it in, take it home and bin it. Please retweet to remind others! 👉🚯 #KeepBritainTidy

🗑️🌊🐚 Last week Community Coordinator, Rachel, and a FirstLight veteran assisted Beaches Toclean with a 100m survey of Redcar Stray, resulting in a staggering 16kg of rubbish! If you would like to take part in the next beach clean please get in touch with Rachel on 07721237315.
