Private notices/flyers on lampposts

[Nigello]

If you must advertise your school fete/yard sale/street party etc. with laminated signs attached to lampposts and railings, please take them down afterwards. It's just being polite and not adding to unwanted street furniture. Southwark Council puts plenty up (those yellow ones) and never removes them so no need to add to the tattiness.

I like reading notices on trees and railings. It's a good way to advertise something going on in the area and also for example if you're cat has gone missing etc. It's a good old fashioned way to do it as not everybody is on social media. Lots of schools, churches, shops have also become very inclusive over the years and won't allow a sign/poster to be put on their premises for something going on in the area so it's all a bit hit and miss.

I don't mind them being there and agree it adds to a sense of community but it is not community-minded to leave them. I do think it is just polite and fair to remove them once the event is over.
