New boundaries for the 2024 General Election.
From the 2024 General Election, the Parliamentary Constituency of Folkestone and Hythe will include the District of Folkestone and Hythe wards of Broadmead, Cheriton, East Folkestone, Folkestone Central, Folkestone Harbour, Hythe, Hythe Rural, New Romney, Romney Marsh, Sandgate & West Folkestone, Walland & Denge Marsh.
The electorate will be reduced to bring it within the permitted range by transferring out the North Downs area in the north (North Downs East and North Downs West wards), along with the parts in the Borough of Ashford (Saxon Shore ward), primarily to the reconfigured constituency of Ashford.
Central Folkestone Lib Dem Town Councillor Gary Fuller has described the line of concrete where the path from Bouverie Place Shopping Centre meets that of Alexandra Gardens as unsightly and, in the long run, potentially dangerous.
An opportunity for local people to give their opinions on relevant and topical issues has been set up in Maidstone in the form of an online research panel. The research "Local Opinion" conducts is extremely relevant to the area in which you live and will provide useful information on what local people really think. The results of these surveys will not only provide interesting articles but they will be used to represent the community in important matters.
This evening the Leas Beacon will be lit for the official hand over from the Folkestone Lions to Folkestone Town Council. This event is open to all and the Town Mayor, Councillor Peter Gane and Town Councillors have invited all local residents to join in the festivities.
We are so pleased you want to join the team.
