A crime summit is being held in Oxted.

Residents of Tandridge are invited to attend the event which will provide an insight into Surrey Police over the past year and outline how the force is planning to respond to changes in demand.

Local policing will also be discussed and those attending will be able to raise issues affecting them.

The Overview and Scrutiny Committee will be hosting the event with Kevin Hurley, Surrey Police and Crime Commissioner, attending.  District Inspector Dan Gutierrez and East Surrey Superintendent for Operations, Clive Davies, will also be present.

The summit is being held Tuesday evening 3rd November at the Council Offices.

A campaign is aiming to encourage an increase in food recycling.

A roll of free caddy liners, an information leaflet and a ‘No Food Waste’ sticker from Keep Britain Tidy will be delivered to Mole Valley households from mid-October over the next three months.

The District Council is supporting Surrey Waste Partnership’s food waste awareness campaign.

Last year almost 50,000 tonnes of household food waste was put into rubbish bins in the county.  It is estimated Surrey could save £3 million per year if all food waste is recycled.

Enough food waste to fill an Olympic swimming pool is thrown away in Mole Valley on an annual basis.

Fly-tipping is being targeted by Mole Valley District Council.

The latest incident saw three piles of illegally dumped rubbish on a bridleway in Charlwood.

Contents included personal letters and trophies.  Broken glass was also found.

Residents are being reminded to check the credentials of anyone collecting waste from their property as they have a responsibility to ensure their waste is disposed of legally.

Fly-tipping in Mole Valley costs taxpayers £30,000 every year.

A head-on collision in Godstone has left an elderly couple with serious injuries.

The driver of the Alfa Romeo, a man in his 40s, was treated at East Surrey Hospital in Redhill for injuries to his wrist and sternum.

Anyone who witnessed the collision is asked to contact police on 101.
