We do not simply “sell products” - we provide a comprehensive and long-lasting service to individuals and their families. This is an important distinction and an approach that is rare in today’s fast moving landscape.

Tonight we had full council. My colleague Cllr Peter Jones tried to propose a motion to bring the decision to end trade waste back to Strategy & Resources committee. Sadly the Liberal Democrat’s outvoted us again and we lost the attempt to overturn this very unpopular decision. I know that it’s not a statutory council function and that it has been running at a loss, but with some adjustments to charges it could be cost effective and surely supporting our local businesses should be a council priority? NDC has around 35% of trade waste contracts for North Devon. It feels like we’re abandoning them just when running a business has never been harder.
Thanks to Olly Seymour (and Harry!) from SQ Bar and Restaurant and the other businesses who came along this evening. Sorry it wasn’t a better outcome. Olly has started a petition if you would like to support him 👇
