Your guide to Christmas in Greenwich
Bin collections
Your bin collection days will change over the festive period. We’ll share updates on our social media and WhatsApp channel if we’re running behind in your area. Check your collection dates.
Our opening hours over Christmas
During this period, most council services will continue to run, although some will have adjusted opening hours.
Staying safe over the festive period
With Christmas parties, busy markets and shopping centres in full swing, sadly we also see increased instances of theft, burglary, drink-spiking and other potential threats. To help keep you safe this winter, we’ve compiled our top safety tips for the festive period.
Free lunches and holiday clubs for kids
Children aged between four and 16 and receiving benefit-related free school meals, can get a free holiday club spot this winter through Holiday Food and Fun. Free, nutritious meals for children and young people will also be available throughout the Christmas holidays across the borough.
