Cotswold District Council is proud to announce the completion of the community-led transformation of Argos Alleyway in Cirencester. Once a neglected space, the alleyway is now a vibrant, safer, and welcoming pathway thanks to the collective efforts of local groups, volunteers, and key partners. 

With an estimated 30.4 million pumpkins expected to be bought in the UK as decorations this Halloween, Cotswold District Council is encouraging residents to get creative to cut down on waste and help reduce the negative impact this fun festival has on the environment.  

VisitEngland revealed the winners of its Visitor Attraction Accolades for 2023-2024, recognising excellence within the visitor attraction sector at a glitzy ceremony on 22 October.

Cotswold District Council is joining in with the ‘Rescue Me’ theme of this year’s national Recycle Week (14 – 20 October) and challenging residents to recycle even more things more often.

Cotswold District Council has issued four £600 fixed penalty notices over the past six weeks to residents for breaching their duty of care in relation to waste disposal. These penalties highlight the Council’s commitment to ensuring that waste is handled responsibly, in line with legal requirements, to protect the environment and combat fly-tipping.
