COVID19

The current situation is unprecedented and we can all see that it is having an impact on daily life for us all, whether we are in self isolation, in an 'at risk' or vulnerable group or just trying to continue with daily life in these difficult times.

We are fortunate in Risley and Hopwell to have a Neighbourhood Watch Scheme and a group of volunteers which has been set up in response to the Coronavirus outbreak, details can be seen in the newsletters under the News section.

PLAY AREA

Would parents please note that the play area is open BUT has not been cleaned. Please ensure that you and your children wash hands after using the equipment and keep in mind the social distancing measures at all times.

It would be appreciated if dog owners would pick up after their pets if using the play area, especially as children may be using the open area for exercise. Thank you

FUTURE MEETINGS OF THE PARISH COUNCIL

Legislation had been passed which allows parish councils to not hold annual meetings until 2021. Virtual meetings should be held whenever possible in order to conduct business.

New legislation now states that those councils who are unable to hold virtual meetings for whatever reason, are being to hold physical meetings. However, risk assessments and all safety measures must be carried out in line with Government guidelines. It is confirmed that Risley with Hopwell Parish Council will be holding a meeting on Thursday, 16 July in order to approve the accounts. More information will be posted on the noticeboards at the weekend.

If you need to contact the Parish Council I am still contactable by email (clerk@risleywithhopwellparishcouncil.org.uk) or on the telephone number shown below.

Take care and stay safe,
Sue
Clerk to the Parish Council

COUNTY COMMUNITY NEWS INCLUDING RECYCLING CENTRES

New safety measures introduced at recycling centres

Our household waste recycling centres have re-opened (Monday 18 May) – but only for waste that you cannot continue to store safely at home.

Please use your kerbside bins and bulky waste services run by your local and district borough council as you would normally do. And if you're planning to visit one of our centres, check out these golden rules before you travel:

Only travel to your local recycling centre if it is essential because you can't continue to store waste safely at home without it causing injury or harm.

Check which day you can access our recycling centres based on the last number on your vehicle registration plate – if it's an odd number, you can visit on odd numbered days of the month and if it's even you can visit on even numbered days.

Avoid taking excessive amounts of waste and please don't bring vans or trailers.

Please be prepared to queue as social distancing measures mean fewer vehicles will be allowed on site at any one time.

Wear protective gloves, appropriate footwear and clothing and only bring what you can safely handle. Staff can't carry your waste as they normally would.

Visit on your own – unless you need another adult from your household to help carry your waste.

Stay at least 2 metres away from staff and other users and wash your hands when you get home.

Stay at home if you have had coronavirus symptoms in the last 14 days, are self-isolating or at high risk of contracting the virus.
