Manton to get a clean up

PARTS of Manton highlighted as areas of crime concern are to get a makeover from offenders next week.

A fly tipped area on Forest Lane, Manton, and woodland behind Manton Villas will be litter picked, cleared and cleaned up, by offenders supervised by Notts Probation Trust.

The Manton sites have been highlighted as in need of attention through the Partnership Plus action plan overseen by the local Community Safety Partnership. Partnership Plus areas have been chosen as areas of concern due to high crime and anti-social behaviour rates.

The big clear up comes as the Probation Service’s Community Payback scheme celebrates its 40th anniversary.
