HAVING witnessed the burning of several three piece suites etc on a local bonfire, may I remind readers that there is no need to dispose of such unwanted items in this way - which is illegal - or by dumping them in the countryside.

There is a free of charge collection service available to householders of such things, (limited by numbers and times per year).

To arrange this just ring FOCSA Services on: 01386 760145.

Details of this service were sent out on a leaflet also advising householders that refuse sacks would be delivered at regular intervals rather than weekly, some months ago.
