Greenbelt Announces Marie Curie Annual Partnership
We are delighted to announce that we’ve committed to donating £20,000 a year to our chosen charity Marie Curie.
Greenbelt is getting back to work – caring, safely and responsibly, for your open space environment.
And even in these challenging times there are reasons to be cheerful.
Greenbelt led the way in halting open space maintenance and inspections on housing developments to help prevent the spread of COVID-19 . . . but, rest assured, we have been working non-stop in the background preparing for our return.
Greenbelt continues to focus on the safety of homeowners and employees and is fully supporting the UK-wide effort to suppress the spread of COVID-19.
This means it’s not possible right now to perform the routine maintenance that would normally be underway on developments at the beginning of Spring.
Greenbelt is prioritising the safety of homeowners and our employees in these extraordinary and challenging times by suspending all open space maintenance.
Our number one goal is to help halt the spread of COVID-19 for us and the world around us.
Please be assured none of our residents will be charged for the period when maintenance is halted, with full and clear details made available on your next annual bill.
Having introduced our own programme of strict hygiene controls, Greenbelt is continuing with the uninterrupted operation of our services based on the latest Government advice.
Weather experts are warning Storm Dennis could inflict more damage this weekend than Storm Ciara, with a “perfect storm” caused by a combination of heavy rain, strong winds and melting snow.
