Reigate & Banstead Borough Council has announced it is making £100,000 available to boost the vitality of its towns and villages.

The Council hopes the new “Town Centre Vitality Fund” will support activities and events aimed at increasing footfall and visitor experience in the borough’s high streets and local shopping centres.

The Fund is open to local town centre groups, community organisations, local councillors and private sector organisations that can demonstrate they have consulted with and have the support of the local community.  It will be managed on a first come, first served basis and will close in March 2025 or when the funds have been fully awarded, whichever is sooner.

Give your views in polling districts and polling places review 


Reigate & Banstead Borough Council is carrying out an interim review of polling districts and polling places and is asking residents, disability groups and other interested parties to give their views.

The review is to ensure that electors have suitable facilities for voting and that every polling place is accessible to those with disabilities, as far as is reasonable and practical.

The review looks at:

• Polling districts, which are the areas created by dividing electoral wards into smaller sections with roughly the same number of electors.
• Polling places, which are the locations, normally the buildings, in which polling stations are situated.

As part of this review the public consultation will run until Thursday 30 November 2023.

34 volunteers and ten teams have been recognised for their selfless service to the community at this year’s Reigate & Banstead Volunteer Awards. They include twenty individual volunteers, four young volunteers under the age of 25, ten individual trustees, and ten volunteer teams.

The wonderful litter pickers have been at it again, collecting huge amounts of litter to keep our river banks clear.

Samantha Lerwin-Mearing who organises the picking events said,
'Today we had a lot of new litter pickers helping out - these included Perrywood Panthers U8 football team who came out in force with their parents. The majority of the litter (left of the litter bin) was collected by the football team. Absolutely brilliant 👏 👏👏👏👏 what great work. We really appreciate the time you took to come out and help.

As usual we had many members of the public stop us to thank us for our work, it's really nice to know we make a difference.'

The last two litter picks for this year will be on the 19th & 26th November between 1:30 and 3:30pm. The Six Bells Public House has kindly agreed that participants of the litter pick can park at the very top end of the car park. This is a very busy public house so please park at the end closest to Court Lodge Fields.

On the 26th November all litter pickers are invited to join Sam and Rod for a celebratory drink in the Six Bells from 3:30pm. This will be the last litter pick of the year - the 17th since February 2023! If you hadn't had a chance to join yet but would like to, you'll be glad to hear litter picks will start again in the New Year. Details to follow
