The Parish Council wants to collate all the complaints/incidents connected to the flooding in the village in order to produce a report to present to the authorities. This will help to make a solid case for action to be taken. To enable us to do this please send your experiences by email to kilhamparishcouncil@gmail.com including permission for the Parish Council to use your personnel information in the report.
We would like to ask for your help on another matter. If a bus service was provided through the village would you use it and how often?

Again using the same email address please let us know as we will need to demonstrate there is a need.
