Cleaning up after your dog

If your dog fouls in a public place, you must clean up the mess under the Public Spaces Protection (Dog Fouling) Order 2025 . Always carry a poop scoop, which is a specially designed plastic shovel, or a bag to carry your dog’s mess to a dog bin or normal on-street litter bin. If there isn’t a dog mess bin, please take it home and dispose of it in your grey bin. Please note: dog mess should not be put in your green bin.

Warwickshire Fire and Rescue Service – Consultation on proposed service delivery model

Warwickshire Fire and Rescue (WFRS) is inviting feedback on a proposed change to its service delivery model as part of its Resourcing to Risk approach.

Resourcing to Risk aims to have the right resource, in the right place and at the right time, to keep people safe in their homes, their workplace, their environment and when they are travelling through Warwickshire. The Service wants to hear views and feedback on this proposal, which aims to optimise the distribution of fire appliances, firefighters and supporting resources so that they better align to risk and demand.

The model proposed by WFRS does NOT plan to close fire stations in Warwickshire.

Please see Ask Warwickshire for more information on the reasons for the Resourcing to Risk proposal and the benefits that WFRS believes the proposed approach offers in improving how they keep Warwickshire’s communities and people safe.

A series of consultation events will also be held in each of Warwickshire’s five district and boroughs in January and February (dates to be confirmed).

The last day for responses is 10 March 2024
