AN environmental chief is set to allay Alvechurch residents' fears over a wheelie bin scheme proposed for the district.

Bromsgrove Council's head of Environmental Health, David Williams, will be speaking about the wheelie bins at the next Alvechurch Parish Council meeting on Monday.

Parish Council clerk Gill Lungley said concerns had been raised about the scheme, including its unsuitability for the elderly or frail.

The meeting takes place at Hopwood Community Centre from 7.30pm.
