Due to the extreme hot weather, Veolia will be starting bin collections from 6am. Please make sure you put your waste out at your normal collection point by this time, or as late as possible the evening before.

Armed Forces Week marked

Published date

Today (22 June 2026), a short service was held outside the Civic Centre to mark the start of Armed Forces Week.

The week is an opportunity to recognise the dedication and sacrifice of the entire Armed Forces community, including serving personnel, veterans, service families and cadets.

As a town, we are proud of the contribution they make to our country and our communities. Thank you for your service.
