Meet Your Councillors 2026: Strengthening Local Dialogue in Windlesham
Why Your Voice Matters at Our Upcoming Councillor Session
National headlines often dominate our screens, while the decisions that shape our immediate, day-to-day lives, from road safety and planning oversight to the protection of our hedgerows and village amenities, happen right here on our doorstep.
At the Windlesham Society, our constitutional purpose is not only to preserve the character of our village, but to foster an engaged, active community. We believe that local democracy works best when it happens at a human scale, where residents and elected representatives can sit in the same room, share perspectives, and hold constructive conversations about the place we all call home.
That is precisely why we host our annual Meet the Councillor sessions.
We provide a neutral, open, and approachable platform where local residents can connect directly with our Parish, Borough, and County councillors. The Society doesn’t take political stances or speak on behalf of individual political views; instead, we build the bridge so you have more opportunities to speak directly with those who represent us.
