CHERWELL District Council is running a 'neighbourhood blitz' next week to clean up a Banbury estate.

From Monday Hardwick estate will receive a deep clean, with a focus on eliminating litter, flytipping and graffiti.

The campaign urges residents to take part in the big clean-up and is offering cut-priced bins and free bulky waste collections.

Up to 100 bulky waste collections, which normally cost £18 per three items collected, will be free to Hardwick residents booking next week.

People can book collections online on a first-come first-served basis, which will be completed during the week beginning Monday, 25 June.

The blitz is part of a district council campaign to clean up the areas subjected to the heaviest use.
