We cannot believe what we walked into this morning. Someone has ripped the top off our NFDC recycling bin, rendering it useless. This pointless act of vandalism will probably cost us another £700 to replace the bin. Why do it? You should be ashamed of yourselves - we are a hard working community centre supported by lots of volunteers who work tirelessly for our community - we will be appealing for witnesses. So please if you saw or know anything, phone us on 01425 472613, we are reporting it to the police now.
