DOG owners who haven't had their pet microchipped can get it done for free at an event in Ingrow.

The drop-in takes place at Ingrow Primary School on Tuesday, April 4, between noon and 4pm.

Dogs Trust workers – helped by Bradford Council dog wardens – will carry out the microchipping, plus health checks.

There will also be a chance for people to join the Green Dog Walker scheme, when owners pledge to clear-up after their animal and carry extra poo bags to help other owners.

Information will be available on a range of neighbourhood issues, including crime prevention and new recycling arrangements.

And residents will be able to nominate 'grot spots' in the area, then sign-up to tackle them with other residents.

Council ward members, neighbourhoods staff and police will be on hand for people to raise concerns.

Contact Liz Parker, at Keighley area co-ordinator’s office, on 01535 618008 for further information.
