At the July meeting the Council considered the problems which fly tipping is producing across the area, and whether the level of incidences was increased by the rules covering the public's use of the Kirklees Recycling Centres.  We are consulting with the other Town and Parish Councils within Kirklees to find out if they are experiencing the same problems, and if they would be willing to make a joint approach to Kirklees Council to request the rules are reviewed in the light of this information.

Kirklees Council has a great way of supporting communities - it involves sharing 'stuff', space and skills through Comoodle.  Local organisations are getting involved by sharing too.  Comoodle can provide children's activities for village events and even have a vehicle they are willing to let volunteers use short-term for community purposes.  It also covers space - if a local group or a business has space which is not being used, it could be shared with another group to hold a meeting in or to store equipment.

Everyone can be involved.  More information can be found on the  Comoodle website
