Keep our beaches and countryside clean for everyone this summer 🌞

If you’re heading out for a picnic or spot of lunch at your local park or beach, please follow some simple steps to help keep the South Hams clean and enjoyable for everyone:

🚮 Please use litter bins - but if they're full, take all of your rubbish and recycling home with you

💧 Bring a reusable water bottle – reduce plastic waste

What do you want to look like in the future?

We need to hear from more people as we shape the town’s Community Economic Plan. You might be a business owner, someone who shops in town, a market trader, a café regular, a student, a local employee or someone who lives nearby and wants to see the town do well.

If that sounds like you, please take a few minutes to share your thoughts in the comments.

We’re making improvements to the Fore Street public toilets in Kingsbridge 🚽 🚾

We are refurbishing the Fore Street loos to make them more modern – the works will be done in phases from Monday 8 June for around six weeks, so there will always be toilets available for you to use throughout the works.

The refurbishment is part of our wider commitment to invest in our communities - we’re also looking at refurbishing the Quay toilets later in the year.

Thanks for your patience while we carry out the works.
