Request support for Folkestone and Hythe
We're not currently able to provide detailed weekly summaries for Folkestone and Hythe Council. We need support from the council to:
- Ensure we can reliably access and process council meeting information
- Cover the costs of processing and summarizing council data
- Maintain and improve the service for residents
You can help make this happen!
Contact your councillors to let them know you want Folkestone and Hythe Council to support Open Council Network. This will help ensure residents can stay informed about council decisions and activities.
