A COUNCIL has said that it has failed to complete its normal bin rounds due to staffing shortages.

Copeland Council, which runs services in West Cumbria, has apologised for not completing rounds.

The affected areas of Millom, Haverigg and Silecroft were missed yesterday, Monday, April 25.

The council says that Covid staffing shortages are to blame for the missed rounds.

It has affected garden waste collections and will be rectified today.
