Improvements include repainting bollards and bins, lampposts, bike stands within Chadsmoor War Memorial and car park; installing additional planters; a new ‘Welcome to Chadsmoor’ signs; clean-up of pavement areas; remarking the car park on the corner of Burns Street and Cannock Road; and installation of a memorial bench.

With the festive season fast approaching, Cannock Chase Council is relaunching its ‘STOP the Scams’ campaign, encouraging residents to stay vigilant against fraud. 

Scammers often target people during busy holiday periods, taking advantage of the season’s shopping, gatherings, and charitable giving. The Council’s Community Safety team is determined to help residents recognise, avoid, and report scams - to protect themselves and their loved ones.

Cannock Chase Council’s waste and recycling calendars for December 2024 to March 2025 are now available to download from our website.

The calendars detail collection dates for the green, blue and brown bins, also include important information about Christmas and New Year changes.

The consultation on the future of culture and heritage services in Cannock Chase is now open. This follows a decision by the Council's Cabinet yesterday to invite residents to share their views on the district’s culture and heritage offer.

The consultation comes in response to proposals to close the Museum of Cannock Chase and the Prince of Wales Theatre.

Residents across Cannock Chase are to be asked to give their views on a future cultural offer for the area - following proposals to close a museum and theatre.

Senior councillors will discuss closing the Museum of Cannock Chase and Prince of Wales Theatre as part of budget measures in a move to protect essential frontline services for the community and key leisure facilities for residents.
