To whom it may concern I parked my car on Windsor drive on Friday 12th August to go to the chemist. When I returned to my vehicle a branch from the tree had fallen onto my car (please see pics) and has caused damaged to my vehicle, bonnet and wings (please see pics). I am going to get a quote to get these repaired please can u let me know what the process is to get me reimbursed from the council. After this happened a local man had told me that this tree had been reported for its branches. I was very lucky that this didn't fall on me whilst I was getting in or out of my vehicle with my children.

I look forward to hearing from you Thank you
