Time to get involved in budget

Town and parish councils in Telford & Wrekin will be discussing what is to go into, or be left out of, their budgets so that they can notify the borough council of the precept that will be collected by the borough and returned to the parish/town for them to spend.

The figures for past budgets are available to the public. Now is the time for you to get involved. Has your council set aside funds to aid local clubs and charities or sport?

Are you paying a higher precept to the borough for things such as lighting, burial or allotments? Do you have the facilities you would like, but the borough does not provide?

Could you, by your own efforts plus help from the town or parish council, provide them for the benefit of your community?

Don't leave it to others. Do it yourself with other interested parties. Do it now, before it's too late.
