The real Moira Village

Just when you thought Lisburn & Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council could get any worse! Another rate increase……and for what? It’s going to be interesting to see who voted for this!

At a meeting on Thursday 5th February 2026, the council agreed the 2026/27 district rate.

Chair of Corporate Services Committee, Councillor Brian Higginson, said: “We recognise that people and businesses are still feeling the effects of financial pressures. While inflation and energy costs have started to decline, the cost-of-living challenges remain significant for our ratepayers and we have worked hard to try to keep the rate increase as low as possible."

SCAM ALERT

MICROCHIP SCAM. We are posting this as a warning to pet owners, please. On 16th of March we heard from a client that they received an email notification from PETCHIP saying their dog's microchip had expired. The email had his correct name, breed and microchip number plus her own name and phone number so she had no reason to doubt it. Thank fully she didn't pay the £29, realising that she had never used PETCHIP! We checked with her legitimate Microchip provider who confirmed that PETCHIP is a scam. I hope this post serves as a reminder to other pet owners to check carefully any request to renew an expired microchip and save themselves from an unnecessary fee.
