clothes waste woodley

A pledge to reuse and recycle

 

 


clothes waste woodley

 

Re3 is working in partnership with Wokingham Borough Council, Reading Borough Council, Bracknell Forest Council and FCC Environment to help people in Bracknell Forest, Reading and Wokingham Boroughs waste less and recycle more.

 

This month, the focus is on reducing the number of clothes that end up in landfill. Every week 11 million items of clothing end up in landfill. Throwaway fashion is putting increasing pressure on our planet and its people – it’s unsustainable.

 

Re3 is urging residents to help by joining Second Hand September and pledging to say no to new clothes for 30 days. To join in, click HERE and sign up. Furthermore, to receive Re3’s regular newsletter, sign up HERE.

Beware of doorstep rogue traders

thames valley police rogue traders in woodley

 

Thames Valley Police are warning of an increase of doorstep rogue traders

 

TVP has released the following information:

We have received reports of potential Doorstep Rogue Traders and Cold Callers in the Earley and Woodley areas.

You may receive a cold call knock at your door from someone claiming to be a tradesman working in the area. They will call unexpectedly, offering services or goods you had not asked for. Those who accept work often find the price increases or the work is left unfinished.

The usual type of work offered includes pressure washing driveways, garden clearance, chimney repairs, replacing loose tiles, repairing leaking roofs or guttering and driveway work. If you accept work from a doorstep trader you’re very likely to pay much more than the price initially agreed for very poor, unnecessary and sometimes dangerous work and you are likely to be targeted by them again in the future. They often target the older generation, who are often more trusting and vulnerable to falling victim to these types of traders.

Doorstep traders rarely provide paperwork so they can’t be traced once they’ve left your home. Names, addresses and business details are often false and telephone numbers are not answered. They have no interest in doing work properly, their only concern is getting the cash and disappearing before Trading Standards or the Police can catch up with them.

Cold Calling can also be a cover for persons planning more serious offences, such as burglaries, to see if houses are occupied. Cold Callers might also commit Bogus Official offences where they gain entry to the house by deception in order to steal, whilst the occupant is distracted.

Please pass on this advice to friends and neighbours who might not receive Thames Valley Alert emails or texts. Genuine reputable local tradesmen do not need to find work in this way.

You should never feel pressured to accept any work or service you do not want or need. It is your home and your right to say NO. If you suspect a crime is in progress, or about to occur, please note any descriptions and contact police on 999.
