Fittleworth Stores reminds everyone over 11 years old (except those with special exemptions) :-
Don’t forget your face coverings at Fittleworth Stores from tomorrow please. Don’t forget that from tomorrow you will need a mask or face covering to enter the shop at Fittleworth Stores, unless you have a good reason for not wearing one. (Customers eating at our cafe tables outside will not need to wear face coverings.) Don’t worry if you forget to bring a face covering with you – we will have disposable masks available for purchase at our door and fabric face coverings inside.
*****************************************************************************
The face coverings are to be worn in shops, supermarkets, shopping centres, banks, building societies and post offices. It extends to train and bus stations and airports.
Whether it’s while resting on the new bench, or waiting in the sociable, socially-distanced queue, there’s now a lovely garden and an interesting sculpture (Ceres, the Roman goddess of grains, agriculture and harvest) to look at. More details on the Fittleworth Community Shop page. 
The range of items accepted at Household Waste Recycling Sites (HWRSs) across West Sussex has been extended to include all waste streams, with minor exceptions, as laid out below:
Trailers will permitted at Crawley, Billingshurst and Worthing, but only on weekday afternoons from 1pm – 6pm , due to the operational changes being made to sites in order for them to access safely. However, trailers will not be accepted at the other sites for the time being, nor can they enter these three sites at weekends or on weekday mornings.
Residents who wish to take a van, pickup truck or trailer must also display the appropriate free permit, further details of which can be found online.
You can find more information and the full statement on our website.
Residents are required to show one of the forms of ID detailed below at the entrance, in order to use the site. Access to the sites will be denied if proof of residency is not shown, or you live outside of West Sussex, with turning areas provided for those who are not able to use the site.
Only original and printed paper copies are acceptable. Allowing the use of digital copies of documents was considered but it was felt that the potential issues, such as lack of internet connection, could result in traffic congestion. |
