Advice if you need to contact the Council

Folkestone & Hythe District Council is advising residents to call or to go online to access information about services.

The appeal has been made to reduce visitor numbers at the Civic Centre in Folkestone to try and restrict the spread of the coronavirus illness (COVID-19).

Cllr David Monk, Leader of Folkestone & Hythe District Council, said: “We are committed to providing essential services and helping our residents. But we would ask people to think very carefully before coming into the council offices. This is to help protect both their own health and that of our staff.”

In light of the current situation and advice from Government all formal council meetings have been cancelled and legislative changes are expected which will advise local authorities how to proceed with meetings.

Following Government advice staff at the council have been instructed to work from home where possible.
