On Saturday 20th May more than 350 walkers, joined by a good number of EHDC councillors, took part in our annual Charity Walk for Peace.
The walk is a family-friendly 5km around Hogmoor Inclosure in Whitehill & Bordon. We run it alongside the Ahmadiyya Muslim Elder Association and the Whitehill & Bordon Community Trust.
This year the money raised will be split between 26 local charities, the most we've ever had taking part.

As part of your work as a councillor you will occasionally need to ask for support from officers.
You can do this in two ways:
Through MyEHDC
For simple service requests you must log in to our customer management system, called MyEHDC and log a request.
This allows us to properly process your request. It will be given a unique reference number and that allows us to track its progress through the system to completion.
Please do not call officers directly.
Please advise residents to use MyEHDC in the first instance and if you need to follow up with a service, use the reference number they have for their case.
|
Through a director
For more complex requests, contact the relevant director who will be able to advise you.
Visit our Senior Leadership Team page on the Councillor Hub to find out more.
