This winter Lambeth council is looking for community-minded volunteers to help clear snow and ice from local streets and help keep the borough moving during periods of bad weather.
They say they are looking for individuals to become Lambeth’s first snow wardens and make our pavements safer.
During the winter months our focus is on keeping public services and main transport routes running. We’re continuing with our usual winter maintenance service this year, but this still means that many quieter residential roads don’t get gritted. This is why we are offering you the opportunity to get involved and make a real difference in your local area.
We will give our snow wardens all the training and tools they will need, including;
- shovel
- hi-visibility jacket
- gloves
- grit bin
- a supply of grit!
We will provide community groups with additional equipment which can be shared amongst members.
Training sessions will be held during the weeks beginning 10 October and 24 October, with some sessions during the early evening and some during the day.
