The wide-ranging and exciting district that is Folkestone & Hythe is celebrated in the newest edition of Your District Today.

All the latest news from the council – as well as interesting features about our area – can be found in the 16-page magazine, out from this week.

It includes the key changes to Christmas services, including revised dates for household waste and recycling collections over the festive period, and details of our free parking promotion starting on 9 December.

Information about a new service, supported by the council, giving help to people struggling to meet the increased cost of food is also contained.

We take a look at the major projects being delivered for residents and businesses, and the continued journey towards net zero with local community partners and organisations.

Cllr Abena Akuffo-Kelly sits down to explain more about her role as the chair of Folkestone & Hythe District Council, and we introduce all 30 district councillors elected in May 2023.

There’s also room for an insight into how local roads get their names, a winter walks guide and a look at the music superstars to have visited our district to create some fantastic videos.

Print editions will be landing on doormats across the district from this week and the magazine can also be read on our website.
