Semilong Northampton Litter Lout 1

This LITTER LOUT casually threw his litter on the ground with no regard to the people who live, work or pass through Semilong Northampton.

[read the article here]

Litter is a permanent problem in our neighbourhood and despite it costing thousands to clear up, some people think it is still alright to throw there litter on the ground.

Our aim is to make these litter louts think twice about using Semilong Northampton streets as a litter bin and to reduce the amount of litter that our residents have to put up with.

We will also support the Semilong Neighbourhood Watch Scheme.

Fire at Alpha Pallets 20th July 2009

From approximately 9pm on the 20th July 2009, many Semilong Northampton residents gathered at Miller's Meadow on St. Andrews Road in Semilong Northampton, to watch the fire just across the river, at Alpha Pallets in Martin's Yard, off Spencer Bridge Road.

This huge blaze, which is now believed to be arson, took over two hours to bring under control and had over seventy fire fighters tackling it.

Alpha Pallets, a local business, suffered the loss of over 30,000 pallets in the blaze which also caused train services to be suspended as well as the closure of local roads.

Caught On Video

SEMILONG.ORG attended the scene and recorded high definition video.

[Watch the video of the fire here]

From the video footage, it can clearly be seen that who ever started this fire put the lives of the men and women of the fire service at serious risk and need to be caught and dealt with.
