♻️ Help us keep recycling right! ♻️
We've noticed an increase in paper, card and wallpaper being placed in blue bins, which can contaminate our recycling collections.

✅ Paper and card should be recycled in your blue bag.
✅ Wallpaper should be placed in your green waste bin.

Need a blue bag? Request one via the link in the comments.

Thank you for helping us keep recycling clean and efficient for everyone. 💙

Reports of anti-social behaviour at Linkway Retail Park in Cannock have fallen significantly thanks to joint action by Cannock Chase Council, Staffordshire Police, and the retail park's owners and managing agents.

The retail park had previously been identified as a hotspot for vehicle-related anti-social behaviour, including organised car meets, excessive noise, racing, and stunts in the car park. Retailers also raised concerns about incidents occurring after stores had closed, including reports of staff feeling intimidated when leaving the site.
