Cemeteries and crematorium

• Our cemeteries and Rainsbrook Crematorium remain open for funerals. The maximum number of mourners depends on the crematorium ceremony room used or location within the cemetery. Please speak to your funeral director.
• Crematorium services can be live-streamed by arrangement. Please speak to your funeral director.

Housing

• We are no longer making offers of housing to general housing applicants to ensure that we are able to house residents who are made homeless.
• All communal areas in sheltered housing schemes have been closed, including lounges, kitchens, shared toilets and guest bedrooms. Laundry facilities are still available but residents must maintain 2 metres or 6'6" from other residents.
• The Handyman service has been suspended to provide additional support to the housing maintenance service and protect vulnerable residents.

You can report a housing repair, report a missed bin, or subscribe to the garden waste service online. Using these online services will help keep our telephone lines clear for residents who need more urgent support.
