Darnall Community Day

Yesterday, Wednesday 14th August we held our second Neighbourhood Action Day. This time we were in Darnall.  We had over 25 members of Arches staff, our contractors from Oakbrook Grounds Maintenance and Anthony from GP Maintenance.  We also had a volunteers from Sheffield City Council. During the day we did the following:

• Completed a litter pick around the estates and surrounding areas.
• Cleared away weeds from the footpaths and roads
• Visited customers to ask how they felt about living in their neighbourhood and what they felt could make it better.
• Provided skips for tenants to dispose of bulky waste items from their garden / homes
• Held a drop-in session where you can speak to members of our team about your home or your tenancy

We filled 3 x 10-yard skips on the day, this is equivalent to 60 wheelie bins full.

We will be scheduling more of these in our other neighbourhoods next year. If you would like one in your neighbourhood please let us know and we can look into this.
