We recently endorsed Blackpool and The Fylde College's bid to become a Defence Technical Excellence College.

The bid was successful and now the college will work with employers and partners across the defence sector to support learners into skilled roles in areas such as engineering, nuclear and cyber security.

Cllr Lynn Williams, Leader of Blackpool Council, said: “This is a major investment in Blackpool and the Fylde coast’s skills base. It aligns with our ambition for Blackpool to be a place where young people can train for quality jobs and build successful futures locally.”

“That vision will be supported by our commitment to creating high-quality employment opportunities, including through developments such as Silicon Sands, alongside investment in world-class education facilities like the Multiversity.

“This announcement supports our ambition for Blackpool to be a place where people can see clear opportunities for their future.”

Is your bin day changing? Check here ⬇️

❗️ℹ️ IMPORTANT INFO • One-off grey-lid bin collection for some households coming soon.

As we make changes to our waste collection service, from w/c 20 April onwards, when the switch from two‑weekly to three‑weekly collections comes in, some households won’t match up smoothly with the new timetable at first.

To avoid any disruption, we have arranged a one-off grey-lid bin collection for those affected to bring you in line with the 3-weekly cycle going forward.

This will be included in the new schedule that is available online at: www.blackpool.gov.uk/BinDay

Please note, this may be different to your usual collection day.

Households affected will also be contacted directly by letter.
