Ball Court Waste Bin Problem

There has been an ongoing problem with the ball court waste bin with non-ballcourt rubbish being dumped in it.

The Bay Centre has no waste collection as Sedgemoor charges charities business rates to dispose of rubbish. Any rubbish inside the centre and in the ball court waste bin has to be disposed of in the volunteer's own waste bins at home.

We have signs inside the Bay Centre asking that people only leave recyclable waste and take everything else home with them. This generally works well but hasn't stopped people filling up the external waste bin.

It is hard to track down who is dumping their waste in the external waste bin as the waste appears to be from a number of sources and types of waste.

Our Secretary has sent an email to all groups asking that they ask all people attending their groups to please not dump rubbish in the bin. Signs will be put up inside the Bay Centre and on the bin itself.
