ANNUAL PARISH MEETING

Monday 1^st June 2026

IN THE VILLAGE HALL AT 7.30PM

ALL WELCOME

To be followed by the Annual Parish Council Meeting

If you are a member of a village group who would like to give a report to the Parish on your year, please email the report to me at timberscombepcclerk@gmail.com, or come along and read out the report yourself.

Somerset Council has announced that there will be no recycling or rubbish collections taking place on the Early May bank holiday on Monday, 4 May.

Collection days will change across Somerset following the bank holiday.

All collections will be 1 day later than the usual schedule:

• If a resident’s usual collection day is Monday, it will now take place on Tuesday.
• Tuesday collections will be moved to Wednesday,
• Wednesday collections to Thursday, and so on.
• For those who usually have a Friday collection, their collection will be rescheduled to Saturday 9 May.

If opening on a Monday is part of the Recycling Site’s opening days, then it will be open as usual from 9am to 6pm on Bank Holiday Monday.

To help manage the increased volume of recycling, residents are encouraged to make extra space in their recycling boxes by crushing and flattening their recyclables.

This simple step can make a difference to help reduce the number of trips crews need to make to empty their vehicles.

For more information about what can be collected for recycling and to check a collection day visit the Council’s Bins, recycling and waste pages.

Citizens Advice West Somerset is now closed.
