Trim your overhanging trees & shrubs!
At STC, we’re keen on the concept of rewilding but our officers keep receiving complaints that people are letting their trees, hedges and shrubs overhang pathways and roads. This can make life tricky for pedestrians, particularly for people in wheelchairs or with pushchairs. If your garden has run away with you, please get those secateurs and hedge trimmers out and keep the thoroughfares clear. Many thanks.
