Young tree needs re-staking or it will fall
13th June
The strapping and stakes have broken/become dislodged and the tree is leaning at a precarious angle. While this is probably not dangerous to the public, the tree will certainly not survive without being looked at in the very near future. This would be a shame and a waste as it was only planted within the last couple of years.

Overhanging vegetation
13th June
Overhanging vegetation from rear of property near the bus stop end of Gravel Pit Way. The vegetation includes nasty brambles so passers by can easily get nasty scratches. The vegetation has grown up around a brick building as shown on the map. This problem frequently occurs at this location due to the property owners not maintaining the growth of vegetation. Needs to be sorted on a permanent basis rather than in response to complaints.

Could the council attend to the grass verge which is churned up and uneven. It needs smoothing over and reseeding. It has quite a large hole that also needs filling in.

Urgent Action Required – Smoking in Tugmutton Common Park (Orpington) by PRUH Staff Creating Health Hazard
13th June
I am writing to raise a serious concern regarding persistent smoking activity taking place in Tugmutton Common Park in Orpington, particularly around the children's play area and benches near the entrance.
It has been observed on a regular basis that staff from the Princess Royal University Hospital (PRUH), especially cleaning staff, are using the park bench during their breaks to smoke openly. This is happening in close proximity to young children and families using the play area, posing a significant public health hazard due to second-hand smoke exposure.
This behaviour is unacceptable in a public park where children of all ages come to play and families gather. Despite the known dangers of passive smokingespecially for childrenthere appears to be no enforcement or signage in place to discourage or prohibit this activity. The use of a public, family-friendly space for smoking by healthcare workers is particularly disappointing and sends the wrong message to the community.
I urge the Council to take immediate and strict action to:
Enforce no-smoking regulations in the park.
Install clear and visible signage stating that smoking is not permitted, especially near the play area.
Liaise with PRUH management to ensure their staff are aware of and comply with these regulations.
Consider issuing penalties to repeat offenders to deter future incidents.
This situation requires urgent attention to protect the health and wellbeing of local residents and children. I would appreciate a formal response detailing the steps that will be taken.
