- Pre-sort all waste e.g. rubbish, garden waste beforehand
- You must maintain a minimum distance of 2m from others at all times
- Payment is card only, no cash will be accepted
- Transfer station opening hours are: Monday – Friday 7.30am – 5pm Weekends: 9am – 5pm

Once again, thank you for your patience. We will update you on recycling when services can resume.

Small businesses are vital to the recovery of our economy.

During the Covid-19 restrictions, business owners have shown initiative, hard work and resilience to keep afloat.

But many have been hit hard.

Lack of clarity about just how heavy the toll of the restrictions have been on individual businesses and their ability to quickly rebound adds to the uncertainty of the national economic recovery.

Therefore, Prosper is launching a survey targeted at finding out the scale of Covid-19's impact.

You can take that survey right now – it will only take a few minutes.

If you tried to search on Google and can't find your business from the most common keywords that the majority of the people search, then you're missing out on something. That something is called "Business Website"

The most common mistake that business owners do is wasting money, time, and energy when it comes to having a website by DIY-ing it. Having the Website now is the best thing to do because most people will search what they love using the internet and it is considered essential when it comes to marketing.

Why do we need a website? It is important that your website gives consumers a clear idea of what your brand is about and what types of products or services you offer. It is the first thing you can show them before they even get into your doorstep.

If you need advice for your online presence, feel free to message me here and I am happy to help.
