This is a reply from HDC regarding a question about the new green bin arrangements from April 2024.
By law, we cannot charge for the collection of food waste. As there is a charge for the new garden waste service, this means we cannot accept food waste as part of these collections.
If the waste is from a vegetable patch or windfall fruit, it is classed as garden waste and you can put it in your garden bin. If the waste comes from your kitchen, it is classed as food waste and you cannot put it in your garden bin.
We are fully committed to continuing to providing residents with advice to help them minimise the amount of food waste they generate.
Approximately 70% of the food waste from UK households that is thrown away is edible. By cutting food waste the average UK household can save £500 each year.
We want to encourage residents to reduce the amount of food waste that they are generating which not only helps the environment but saves you money too.

Broughton Parish Council Website www.broughtoncambspc.org.uk
Broughton Parish Council (BPC) now has its own website in the public domain for anybody
to access easily. This is in line with government policy. The purpose of the website is to
stand separately from the existing village website and Facebook page, and display
specifically the management of the parish council.
The website will contain the agendas and the minutes of parish council meetings, the
records of mandatory accounts filed with government agencies, the policies from
Huntingdon District Council (HDC) and Cambridgeshire County Council (CCC), together with
updated important information which may affect all members of our village community. It
will take some time to fully populate the website with historic information. The website has
a facility to report any problems with the village infrastructure, such as road signs and car
parking, under the "Report" section. All such reports go directly to the BPC clerk and
chairman.
Please feel free to suggest any improvements to the website, and try it for yourselves
