Cllr Dolores Lewis said: “we take great pride in our community here in Smallshaw, so I got on to Jigsaw Homes when we saw rubbish starting to accumulate across the area.
Dolores added: “To ensure Smallshaw remains green and clean, residents across the local community will be able to bring excess household and garden rubbish to the community skips.”

Sounds an alternative to expecting people to behave responsibly?
This is a fantastic idea that has come to fruition, and It shows the willing on of community.
.The skips will make a massive dent in helping clear unwanted items that may well otherwise have been difficult to dispose of.
I’m sure most people appreciate the areas they live in.
Why should Jigsaw supply the skips for free it’s not there rubbish,it’s up to the people who live in the area to keep it tidy.
