Please be advised that West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service would never charge individuals in their homes for smoke detectors. We recommend that anyone who receives this message marks the email as spam and reports it to their email provider.

The Park has definitely been well used over the lovely bank holiday weekend, a lot of rubbish was put by the 2 full bins, there were 2 other bins near the Moorland entrance which weren’t full. There was unfortunately quite a lot rubbish strewn around 😢🥺 so I put my mini Wombles to work!

📸 Something is coming to Drighlington this July…

Twice. 👀

Two photography competitions. Two secret themes. And not a single hint from us.

For now, the details are staying firmly locked away in the Parish Council vault 🔒

All you need to know is: 📷 your camera may become very important very soon 👀 you’ll start noticing things you normally walk past 🤫 and the themes are remaining classified information until further notice

Watch this space… Carefully 😏
