Who To Talk To | ||||||
It can sometimes be quite confusing deciding which level of local government is responsible for the issue you want to complain about! This section is intended to be a rough guide to help constituents decide whom to contact. Local Authority services in Aldershot East will be the responsibility of either Hampshire County Council or Rushmoor Borough Council. Other public services like Health, Police, Fire and Further/Higher Education have separate management arrangements but your Local Councillors should be able to help you get a response to any query you have raised with those organisations. County Councillors are, in any event, involved in the management of both the Police and Fire Authorities and from April 2010 they will also be responsible for Further Education. |

For some years now I have supported this Army charity because for every serviceman killed on active service another three, on average, return home seriously wounded. For many, in addition to the terrible emotional stress to their families, this can create real financial hardship. Donations to the ABF can also be made online at www.armybenfund.org |
