We are encouraging residents to take simple steps to prepare for flooding and be ready for periods of heavy rainfall, during the national Flood Action Week campaign.
Action to tackle flooding in the Pix Brook catchment has begun at Etonbury Woods, with the removal of a disused footbridge marking the first visible step in a wider ‘Slow the Flow’ programme of work.

At a meeting on Tuesday 5 August, Central Bedfordshire Council’s Executive decided how it would allocate funding from the Household Support Fund (HSF).
Amicus Trust has been selected as the Chairman’s charity for 2025/26 by the newly-appointed Chairman of Central Bedfordshire Council, Councillor Kevin Collins.
Residents are being asked to make sure their electoral registration details are up to date. Being on the electoral register means you can vote in elections. Expect an email or letter shortly.

We are relaunching our Ward Councillor Grant Scheme on 30 April 2025, giving communities another chance to secure funding for local projects that make a real difference.
