From November 4 blue bins for glass recycling will be delivered to every household on the council's kerbside recycling circuit.

When the bins arrive, take them inside and start using them straight away. Fill them up with clean, unbroken jars and bottles and then put them out beside the red bin and on your usual rubbish day. If you notice one sitting outside your neighbour's place - take it around the back for them so it doesn't blow away.

Hi Neighbours!

The Minister for Seniors Tracey Martin has released the new strategy for our ageing population, Better Later Life – He Oranga Kaumātua 2019 to 2034.

The strategy's key areas for action will be used to guide the priorities of what needs to happen in our action plan.
