Fly Tipping Is Illegal

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.

PICK MY POSTCODE

A fun, free-to-play-everyday postcode lottery draw. It really will not cost you a penny. There are multiple draws each day with different cash prizes, and yes they do pay out. No they don't spam you or sell-on your details. It's just fun! Only registered postcodes are entered into the daily draws, so why not add yours and see if you get lucky? Here's our referral link to sign up with.

Over £1million has been won so far, for FREE, since it started in 2011. Here’s a video of Chris at PMP talking about that.

Like most of the internet, Pick My Postcode is funded by advertising.

The “catch” is that you need to check the site daily. This creates ad revenue.

The prizes are relatively small and increase as they can afford them to.
