New Community Action Team

Oakengates Town Council in partnership with Telford & Wrekin Borough Council has launched a dedicated team to keep our neighbourhood cleaner, greener and safer.

This is part of the Pride in Our Community programme which is seeing £50m invested to keep neighbourhoods better supported.

CATs are jointly funded alongside Telford & Wrekin Council to pick up extra jobs based on what’s needed in their neighbourhoods. Their work is in addition to the day to day work our street cleaning, grounds maintenance and enforcement teams do.

It’s often the small improvements that make a big difference, jobs like clearing weeds from footpaths and cutting back overgrown shrubs. Some teams also have an enforcement officer who deals with issues such as fly-tipping and irresponsible parking around schools.

If you have any questions or enquires about the Community Action Teams please contact us on email: envmaintcs@telford.gov.uk.
