I AM dismayed by the proposal of the council to give us the option of having the existing green bin emptied every three weeks or having a smaller sized bin emptied every two weeks, as at present.

Unfortunately, my wife is housebound and entirely unable to walk.

Her disability entails the daily use of incontinence pads.

We can just about cope with their disposal under the existing arrangements, but neither of the proposed choices would be appropriate in her case.
