We are seeing an increased numbers of cases of bird flu across the country and in parts of Spelthorne.

As a precaution, we recommend people keep dogs on leads by waterways.

Sick or dead birds should be reported to the Defra helpline on 03459 335577 and select option 7.

@GeniePointEV we are very disappointed that after 5 weeks you have been unable to resolve our issue with charging points a 3 locations. The issue gets passed back and forth with no resolve and no charging options for pool cars. There is no ability to escalate the complaint.

@adsantweets Hi there, roads come under the remit of Surrey County Council, nor Spelthorne, they would love to hear your concerns regarding them. We however, are just trying to provide some information and make sure as many pumpkins are recycled as efficiently as possible after Halloween.

[NeighbourhoodService @SpelthorneSt]

As a nation we will carve around 35 million pumpkins for Halloween this year. In November over half of these will go to waste and get thrown into rubbish bins across the country. #recycle #recycling #food #foodwaste #pumpkin #Spelthorne #Surrey #watchyourwaste #Halloween

[NeighbourhoodService @SpelthorneSt]

@Paulos0987 Growing them isn't the problem, it is how they are disposed of that causes issues. We just want to make sure as many as possible are recycled as efficiently as they can be, and used to generate electricity and fertiliser.

[NeighbourhoodService @SpelthorneSt]

The UK farmers grow around 14 million pumpkins every year. 95% of these are sold in October, just to be carved into lanterns for Halloween. #recycle #recycling #food #foodwaste #pumpkin #Spelthorne #Surrey #watchyourwaste #watchyourwastesurrey #Halloween

[NeighbourhoodService @SpelthorneSt]

@mapesdave Yes, it all gets collected as food waste but a lot of pumpkins are too big to fit into the food waste bin. Putting them on your bins just means our food waste crews can spot them easily.

[NeighbourhoodService @SpelthorneSt]

Almost 15 million pumpkins will go into the rubbish the week after Halloween. Don’t let yours go to waste, put it out on your rubbish bin to be recycled! #recycling #recycle #recycling #food #foodwaste #Spelthorne #Surrey #watchyourwaste #watchyourwastesurrey #Halloween #pumpkin

[NeighbourhoodService @SpelthorneSt]

@ridge1984 Yes! Not a problem, just put them on top of your bins next week. Or if you have a food waste bin and they fit, put them into that one.

It’s a scary fact but 18,000 tonnes of pumpkins are thrown away after Halloween every year!! That would fill 5 of the London Olympic Swimming pools, just with pumpkins!! #recycle #recycling #food #foodwaste #Spelthorne #Surrey #watchyourwaste #watchyourwastesurrey #Halloween
