🎄 ♻️ If you have a real Christmas tree that you’d like to be recycled, drop it off at Yarrow Valley Country Park between 3-8 January.

Simply leave your tree in the designated area in the corner of the car park, for us to then chip.

Last year's trees were used to supplement the bird feeding pathway at Brinscall Lodge.

Alternatively, you can chop up and put in your Garden Waste bin for composting.

⚠️Areas with frozen lakes, ponds, canals and reservoirs can be beautiful places to visit during the winter months but all too often people risk their lives by venturing onto frozen water.

⚠️Frozen water might look safe to walk on, but don't risk it - you could easily fall through. Water in the UK very rarely freezes enough to be safe to walk on.

The below link includes some useful information including; about talking to your children about Winter Water Safety and what to do if you see someone fall through the ice: www.rlss.org.uk/winter-water-safety

In winter children and pets are particularly at risk when playing around the ice and open water, and adults can find themselves at risk when trying to save them.

If you’re visiting the park, please follow the latest government guidelines on social distancing.

❌ Please don’t congregate in groups as it makes social distancing difficult for other trying to pass, particularly on paths and entrances to the park.

❌Play areas remain closed so please do not use them.

✔️ Please see the latest Government information on public spaces and outdoor activities 👉

In the first instance, employers should make every effort to support working from home, including by providing suitable IT and equipment as they have been already. This will apply to many different types of businesses, particularly those who typically would have worked in offices or online.
