A ‘Community Conversation’ has been launched by Westmorland and Furness Council to gather people’s thoughts on current services in their area, the feedback received will help inform the council’s emerging options for creating consistent waste and recycling services across the whole of Westmorland and Furness.
These options will be considered early next year and a vision for the revised service will be completed by mid-2025. This will be subject to further engagement and agreement and residents can expect to see the first changes being implemented from late 2025, with the majority of service revisions in place by the end of 2027.Councillor Giles Archibald, Westmorland and Furness Council’s Cabinet Member for Climate, Biodiversity and Environmental Services, said: “Our aim is to reduce waste, increase recycling, and provide services for our residents that are consistent across the whole of the Westmorland and Furness area. We also want to make it easier and more convenient for people to recycle and minimise their waste.
Waste and Recycling Collection – Resident Survey
Deadline is the 20th Dec.
