Grounds maintenance and grass cutting

We are responsible for maintaining council-owned parks and open spaces, grassed areas, trees, play areas and horticultural features. This involves cutting back hedges and shrubs and also grass cutting.We aim to keep our borough clean, safe and pleasant for our residents and visitors.

We're expanding grassland, heathland, wildflower and tree cover throughout the borough. This means mowing some sites less, and at specific times over the year. Find out more about our tree planting programme.
