FRESHVIEW

FRESHVIEW COMES TO HERNE HILL   13TH APRIL
THE FRESHVIEW TEAM  HAVE WRITTEN TO INVITE PARTICIPATION.
 
Dear Resident of Herne Hill
 
Operation Freshview last came to Herne Hill ward in November last year where the Lambeth council and its partner organisations worked on cleaning up the area. In the course of the day, the following actions were taken:
 
 
There were also many specific issues raised by residents that were addressed by Operation Freshview, for example the pedestrian tunnel under Herne Hill Station was cleansed by Network Rail in December and vegetation on Network Rail land trimmed. Rubbish was also cleared by Lambeth's Streetcare department and issues of rubbish dumping raised with residents and businesses in specific areas.
 
 
We would really like your feedback on where to focus our efforts this time round.
 
If you have time to return the email to freshview@lambeth.gov.uk and answer the following questions, we would be very grateful. Please also come and see us on Friday 13 April on Railton Road (near Herne Hill Station) and in Brockwell Park (near the entrance), between 8am and 4pm. We will be giving out 'stubbie' pouches for collecting cigarette butts as well as information about our different services. We will also be collecting any bulky items of rubbish left out for collection in front of dwellings as well as carrying out several other cleaning, tidying and improvement activities.
 
Are there any particular areas where rubbish or abandoned cars have built up that you think need removing? (Please state whether this is on an estate or a public area)
 
 
Are there any premises where you think that Trading Standards or Environmental Health Officers should investigate (Trading Standards enforce a wide range of laws, including product safety, weights and measures, food labelling, credit, product counterfeiting and fair trading.) Trading Standards and the Police regularly conduct joint operations to identify licensed premises selling alcohol to people aged under 18, as well as other shops for sale of age related goods; if anybody has information about under sales whether they be of alcohol, cigarettes, or knives, please let us know. If possible, please supply specific addresses. 
 
 
Are there any areas of parking related problems that Parking Attendants should look into?
 
Are there any areas where there is graffiti or fly posting that needs removing?
 
Are there any areas where you have noticed anti-social behaviour which needs tackling?
 
Finally, do you or anyone you know want a free home fire safety visit from the London Fire Brigade? This could involve them fitting a free smoke alarm if needed. Please call the Fire Service on 08000 28 24 28 to arrange a visit or respond to this email
 
 
PLEASE FORWARD THIS EMAIL ON TO ANYBODY ELSE YOU KNOW IN THE AREA
 
 
We may not be able to action all your ideas on 13th  but we will make a note of your issues and include them in the Capital Cleanup campaign which has been instigated by the Mayor for London  See http://www.capitalcleanup.co.uk/ for further details.
 
All your personal details will be kept private and confidential and will not be used for any other purpose than identifying issues in your local area.
 
Many thanks
