Call for volunteer snow wardens this winter


Rotherham Borough Council wants tax-payers to de-ice footpaths and pedestrian areas, so professionals can concentrate on high-risk places like hospitals and care homes.
The call comes as part of the authority’s Love Where You Live campaign, which encourages residents to make a difference in their communities.
