“Icy pavements are especially dangerous for those who may be unsteady on their feet such as mature residents or those with a disability. Stoke-on-Trent City Council wishes to support local people who may wish to help clear public amenities such as shop frontages, medical centres, schools etc. If volunteers come forward, the council will seek to provide a ‘grit-bin’ at that location for them to access when necessary. Clearing snow and laying ‘grit’ can often be physically demanding so volunteers should ensure that they are fit and able to carry out the work.
