East Hampshire District Council (24 011 996)
Statement Upheld Refuse and recycling 07-May-2025
Summary: Mr B complained the Council regularly failed to collect his waste bins, failed to arrange further collections following missed collections, failed to respond to his correspondence and gave residents misleading information about where to place their bins. The Council failed to ensure its contractors regularly collected Mr B’s bins, did not always arrange follow-up collections, gave misleading advice about where to place the bins and failed to respond to correspondence. That caused Mr B frustration and led to him having to go to time and trouble. The procedural changes the Council has introduced, alongside an apology and payment to Mr B is satisfactory remedy.

Kent County Council (24 012 073)
Statement Not upheld Assessment and care plan 07-May-2025
Summary: Mr X complained that the Council does not provide enough support to meet his needs for social contact. The evidence shows the Council has properly considered Mr X’s needs and provided the support to meet them. In the absence of fault in the way the Council has reached its decision it is not for us to criticise it.

Statement Closed after initial enquiries Residential care 07-May-2025
Summary: We will not investigate Miss X’s complaint about her brother, Mr Y’s, care and treatment by Gloucestershire County Council, Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust and Minchinhampton Surgery. A significant amount of time has passed since some of the events complained about occurred which impacts on our ability to consider them now. We are unlikely to find fault on some points. Finally, further investigation by the Ombudsmen is unlikely to achieve the changes to Mr Y’s care that Miss X is hoping for.
