Free Grit for residents and local businesses
Sutton Council again provided masses of free grit to our residents and local businesses, to get ready for snowy and icy conditions. There could be snow by Christmas.
Each household or local business was able to collect 10kg of free grit courtesy of Sutton Council to use on footpaths, pavements or roads in front of homes or business premises.
Many residents collected grit for themselves and for elderly friends and neighbours or for residents and local businesses who do not have a car. We are delighted this scheme, which has been so successful, has been repeated despite the massive pressure on Sutton Council due to Government cuts in funding.
