It may feel a little early to be thinking about making our homes warm for the winter, but it can really pay to plan ahead, especially given the changing climate and the current economic climate.

If you haven't been to Midhurst for a while, then September is going to be a wonderful time to visit. I'm delighted that Chichester District Council is funding a series of free family events every Saturday of the month, which are being delivered in collaboration with Midhurst Town Council and the Midhurst Town Team.

Our offices will be closed from 4pm on Friday 25 August 2023 and will reopen at 9am on Tuesday 29 August 2023.

A packed programme of free events for all the family will be taking place in Midhurst throughout September, kicking off on Saturday 9 September with an outdoor cinema event and entertainment.

On Saturday 7 October, from a galaxy far, far away comes an absolute must-see for fans of Star Wars and the silver screen.

Last year, the district was recognised as the 'most generous' area in the country, due to the help and support it gave Ukrainian refugees.

Fly tipping is an offence that we take very seriously. Not only does it ruin the landscape of our beautiful district, but it also poses an environmental risk and costs more than £350,000 of taxpayers' money to clear up every year.

Residents in Fishbourne are encouraged to join a community 'Day of Action' on 15 August.

Following last year's success of Culture Spark Chichester District Council announced earlier this year that it will fund another two and a half years of events, live entertainment, and community projects to celebrate the rich and diverse range of cultural and heritage experiences in the district.

Making sure that our residents feel safe is a top priority for the council and its partners.
