The Garden Waste Service, fully funded by Kier, is due to restart with the company offering a random selection of enrolling residents a free subscripti­on service.

Beginning on Monday, March 13 until Friday, November 17, collection­s will happen every fortnight, on the same day as bin bags are acquired.

Collecting a range of garden waste including plants, flowers, weeds, grass, leaves and hedge clippings, the service costs £46.01 per household or £41.73 for pensioners.

The facility has become increasing­ly popular, with almost 8,000 residents subscribin­g to it in 2022, as well as 1,300 tonnes of garden waste collected for composting. Those who subscribed to the service last year will receive informatio­n from Kier about it for this coming year.

If you would like to sign up for the service, please visit Kier’s website.

● Mynydd Cynffig WI: We are meeting once again in the Talbot Center Kenfig Hill. We meet the 2nd Tuesday of the month, from 2pm4pm.

It was great to have the sun shining even if it was cold, but we were nice and warm cups of tea and biscuits helped the afternoon go well. We discussed several of the great trips and diary date’s organised by our Federation and also our link meeting that this year is being organised by Cwm Brombil WI.

Our walking group, scrabble group and lunch club sorted we sat down to listen to our speaker who this month was John Mason with his wife. They had us enthralled with local history, love stories, songs and the history of the Three horse shoes Cefn.

Next month we have Mr Nic Jenkins with a slide show title to be agreed, watch this space.

We left in good spirits having enjoyed an afternoon with friends and colleagues, were always a welcoming bunch call in and meet us.
