Say No! to Somerset Council’s plan to close our recycling site at Castle Cary – Dimmer

The Issue

In an attempt to gain control of the budget Somerset Council has a proposal, Somerset Council MTFP 2024/25 – 2028/29 Savings Proposal – CAP010, to close 5 recycling sites. One of the sites target for closure is Castle Cary - Dimmer.

We believe that this is not in the best interest of "A Greener, More Sustainable Somerset" and is not “reasonably accessible” as proposed by the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and further documented by Waste Resources and Action Programme (WRAP) guide "HOUSEHOLD WASTE RECYCLING CENTRE (HWRC) GUIDE".
