How to use a private window on your browser

All leading web browsers have a “private browsing” mode that, once enabled, stores nothing about your activity on your computer in that browsing window. This won’t stop online services from seeing what you get up to, but it won’t leave any traces of your activity on your computer (no history, web cache or anything else) and so it’s always a useful first step to take.

Internet Explorer: Go to Safety – Tools – “InPrivate Browsing”.

Firefox: Click the Menu button with three horizontal lines – “New Private Window”.

Chrome: Click the Menu button with three horizontal lines and select “New Incognito Window”.

Fire safety advice

Following an investigation it is believed that a fatal flat fire in Kings Hedges started accidentally, and the most probable cause was an electric bike that was charging.

We want to share some important safety advice from the fire service on how to safely charge electric bikes or scooters. All our council homes are provided with a smoke detector. Take a moment to test your smoke detectors today. If there are any issues contact us on 0800 805 1313

Wednesday 20 September 2023

We have been unable to empty some green bins on Church Lane, Long Lane and Mill Lane in Linton today, due to vehicles blocking access. We also accidentally missed 8 blue bins on Olmstead Green in Castle Camps. Please bear with our crews while they get used to their new collection routes which may be in areas unfamiliar to them. All these streets will be revisited tomorrow morning, Thursday 21 September, so if you are affected please leave your bin out for collection. Thank you.
