The West Surrey elections take place on Thursday, May 7.

In Farnham, residents are raising concerns about roads, parking, housing, the cost of living, safety, policing and education, particularly SEND.

Candidates will respond to those concerns at hustings on Thursday, April 30, with three events across Farnham from 7.30pm to 9pm.

Central Farnham Ward’s hustings will be held at St Andrew’s Church, Lower Church Lane; North Farnham Ward’s hustings will be held in St Mark’s Church, Alma Lane, Upper Hale; South Farnham Ward’s ones will be held at St Thomas-on-The Bourne, Frensham Road.

Residents are invited to come along to their local hustings to hear what the candidates have to say and to ask questions. Admission is free.
