Campaign for Weekly Waste Collection

Residents all round the UK are expressing concerns to their local authorities and in some cases are presenting petitions with thousands of names listed. More than often these petitions are ignored. Many of you will be aware that a petition with around 1,000 signatures was presented to Waverley Borough Council recently. What's happened? Nothing.

Weekly Waste is campaigning to introduce legislation dealing specifically with frequency of perishable waste collections. They believe that by joining forces nationally, we may be able to put pressure on OUR government departments to introduce legislation dealing specifically with frequency of perishable waste collections.

Witley Matters believes that those who have experienced problems or anticipate problems should make their feelings known.

You can do two things -

1. Sign up on Weekly Waste to put pressure on OUR government departments http://www.weeklywaste.com/join.htm

2. Why not email the Waverley Environmental portfolio holder and tell him yourself how often you think your rubbish should be collected. Send your email to Mr Victor Scrivens at vscrivens@waverley.gov.uk
