💻✅ Stirling Council has launched a new online portal for residents to access waste and recycling services in a more convenient and simpler way.

The new portal, developed in partnership with Routeware, brings together a range of useful tools and information in one place, helping residents stay informed and make the most of their waste and recycling services.

When visiting the online portal, residents will be able to:
• Access bin collection dates
• Find out where to put waste and recycling items using the Waste Wizard search tool
• Receive the latest collection information, including notifications about garden waste permit renewals and service disruptions
• Play an interactive recycling game, ‘Sort It Stirling’ and challenge yourself, family and friends while learning more about waste and recycling.

Residents can access the new portal today at: https://www.stirling.gov.uk/bins-and-recycling/bin-collection-dates-search/

We have received a request from someone in Italy who would like to reconnect with a childhood contact named Najo Johnson, who lived in Dunblane in 1979 and would be about 58 years old today.

His family operated the Westlands Hotel in 1978.

If anyone remembers the Johnson family, went to school with Najo, or has any information on where the family relocated please contact us at [email protected].

💬 🌳 Residents, community groups and businesses are being invited to share their views on plans to increase and enhance trees and woodlands across the Stirling area.

It will build on the tree-planting work that has already taken place across Stirling, with almost 3.5 million trees planted in the region since 2020.

Stirling Council is asking for feedback on its draft tree and woodland strategy which will drive the improvement and expansion of Stirling’s treescape in both built-up and rural areas.

The strategy, which has been developed with local charity Treelink Stirling, will help council services, residents, land managers, developers, businesses, community groups and organisations collaborate to achieve the area’s bold tree and woodland-related goals.

It will also support more local and community tree-planting activities. More than 2,000 trees were planted on Stirling Council land in 2025/26 with the support of the council and dedicated local volunteers.

A survey on the draft strategy is live on the Engage Stirling website and will be open until midnight 2 September.
