County closes all its household recycling centres

To help enforce the UK government’s instruction for residents to stay at home, all three of Denbighshire’s Household Waste Recycling Centres have closed until further notice. 

Travelling to these sites to dispose of waste is not a valid reason to leave your homes, says the council.   

It adds: "Employees at these sites will be re-trained ready for  redeployment to support our key waste collection kerbside services for food waste and residual (black bin) waste.

"Please retain your bulky waste, DIY waste, electrical items and garden waste within the curtilage of your own properties.  

"Please do not put out this waste for collection on your usual kerbside bin day as we will not be able to collect it.  

"If you discover hazardous waste at your property during a DIY project, such as asbestos, please contact the Council immediately for advice and to arrange it’s removal."

* In another development today (Tuesday) Llangollen Inner Wheel and Rotary Clubs have taken the decision to cancel their summer fete which was scheduled for Saturday the 13th June. 

"We will have a bigger and better fete next year," they say.  

* South Wrexham Cluster of GP Practices has posted on behalf of its Llangollen Practice this morning: "We are working at reduced capacity today. Please use our services carefully and only ring if you have an urgent clinical need. Non-urgent queries can be emailed to us at:
