Packets of: pasta; sugar; cereal; teabags; instant noodles; instant rice; biscuits; custard; instant mash
If anyone in Burton would like to donate to the food bank but cannot get to a collection box please PM me and I'll arrange for a pick up from you by a member of the team, or if you prefer you can donate money directly to the food bank via this link, and thank you for all of your support so far.
There has been a number of instances of fly tipping in the parish. Just because the tips are closed is absolutely no excuse for fly tipping. If you have rubbish then store it on your own land until you can dispose of it properly. If you see fly tipped material please report it to SLDC via the form on their website here if it's on the Cumbria side of the county border, or to Lancaster City Council via their website form here if on the Lancashire side of the county border.
Help is available for those needing support or assistance during the current Coronavirus / COVID-19 emergency.
