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.
Hundreds of people have returned petition forms against the proposed closure of Folkestone Post Office. A few weeks ago the Post Office announced that Folkestone Post Office is to be closed, with services will be moved to a new "franchise" based at WHSmith in Sandgate Road - unless a public consultation can change their mind.
The owners of missing Folkestone dog Bracken have thanked all those who helped the hunt for their missing terrier. After a call from Aylesham, Bracken has been reunited with her family, seemingly fine but needing a good meal.
A dog hunt is underway across Folkestone after a Patterdale Terrier disappeared from its home in Acrise, near Folkestone. The owners have sent out an email across the area appealing for local people to help them find Bracken and are offering a cash reward.
