The Binfield Heath Parish Council

Binfield Heath Parish Council was established in 2003.

There are six councillors, who meet on the fourth Monday of each month, except for August and December. Meetings are held in the Scout Hut opposite the White Hart pub and start at 7.45pm.

The councillors discuss planning proposals, the recreation ground, open spaces and allotments, the state of the highways ditches and footpaths, traffic problems, waste and litter collections and anything else which is of current concern to residents. The Parish council listens to people who live in the villages and liaises on their behalf with the district and county councils.

Parishioners are encouraged to attend and can speak at the public forum. Agendas and minutes are posted on the village noticeboards, outside the shop and in the bus shelter opposite Gravel Road.The council facilitates an annual parish meeting for residents to talk about a subject of interest or concern, usually in May.

The councillors, who are also trustees of the recreation ground charity, are re-elected every four years. Anyone living within three miles of the parish may stand for election.
