Young achievers and community heroes in the Wakefield district who make a positive difference to our communities will be celebrated in our seventh annual Love Where You Live awards.

We are continuing to work hard to reach all our tenants who have reported loss of heating or other emergency repairs.

We are receiving high volumes of repair related calls today due to the severe weather. Emergency repairs including loss of heating are being prioritised but it is taking extra time for our operatives to travel around the district.

Please note due to the adverse weather conditions our Service Access Points will be closed from 3.30 pm today.

Our service access points (SAPs) will be closed on Tuesday 27 February at 12 noon for employee training. They will reopen on Wednesday 28 February as normal.
