Councillor Munsif Dad, Deputy Leader and Cabinet member for Environmental Issues, has announced that more grit bags are available for Hyndburn residents to help clear paths and roads around their homes during the winter months.
Cllr Dad said, “We’ve just had our first frosts of the winter and we want people to be prepared as the weather turns colder. Residents have been telling us they really appreciated the previous offer of free grit bags so we’re going to run it again this winter. We have around 4,000 bags available which will be delivered to residents on a first come, first served basis”
The Leader of the Council, Cllr Miles Parkinson, concluded, “By providing the grit bags, we are not only helping local people get in and out of their homes, we’re also helping them get to work and keep local businesses open and help keep Hyndburn moving in the snow.”
To reserve your free bag simply contact the Council either by telephone: 01254 388111; e-mail: enquiries@hyndburnbc.gov.uk; complete the online grit bag request form at www.hyndburnbc.gov.uk or write to Customer Services, Town Hall, Broadway, Accrington BB5 1EZ.
