If anything, the Covid-19 pandemic has taught us how fragile and unpredictable life can be.Useful information
Hoping that - after focusing on this small, clump which has not spread much over the decades and had been such a joy to generations of kids who have come to harvest it for tree houses, rafts, flag poles and the like - the focus can turn to the smaller bamboo species which is totally taking over the rest of the river and apparently cannot be cleared now because the frog people will not like the spraying of the bamboo stumps. When is something going to be done about this?
We love our Greenbelt, so let's do this simple thing to make a difference, pop your recycling down to Constantia Village recycling depo!
NO LOCKING OF WHEELIE BINS AND BIN PICKING TO BE ENCOURAGED
The City recently informed residents that it was illegal to put a lock on a wheelie bin. As a result of the outcry from residents, the City have published a (rather long) explanation of their reasoning. The City are also supportive of facilitating bin picking and are investigating how to regulate this activity.

SO HOW CAN YOU HELP US TO SUSTAIN THE CLEARING? SNAPSCAN THIS CODE ON THE LEFT!!
Simply scan this code into your Snapscan application on your phone and enter an amount to donate.
