Reporting problems in the area

Too many of us don’t do anything when we see something not right, or say “someone should do something about that”. Please, if you spot something that is not right (e.g. overfull litter bins, fly-tipping, illegal parking), then don’t ignore it, REPORT IT!

If you don’t report it, don’t assume someone else will. If we are all proactive in reporting problems then we will see improvements in our environment. Here is how you can contact the relevant authorities to report common problems.
