 Elmbridge Borough Council invites local people to lead the future of Community Hubs
Elmbridge Borough Council is offering a unique opportunity for people to take on the leadership of one of our Community Hubs. These spaces have served older and vulnerable residents for years, now we’re looking for partners ready to reimagine their future.
Join us for an interactive session to:
- understand what’s involved in running a Community Hub
- hear about available funding and support
- get information to help you shape your proposal
This session is ideal for organisations, groups and interested individuals with a strong local connection, a clear social purpose, and the ambition to shape local spaces for the long term.
Date: Tuesday 16 September 2025
Location: Lower Green Community Centre, Farm Road, Esher, Surrey, KT10 8AU
Time: 4pm to 7pm

 PSPO unauthorised mooring update: Cigarette Island and Albany Reach
We are pleased to share that following our latest enforcement operation on 8 August, all 28 boats previously moored on land owned by Elmbridge Borough Council and Surrey County Council have been removed or salvaged. This includes the safe removal and destruction of eight part-sunken vessels.
To ensure that any new unauthorised boats are managed, regular patrols will continue under the Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO).
 Step outside this summer, join our wellbeing walks and cycle rides
Our summer programme of wellbeing walks and cycle rides is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the outdoors, meet new people and boost your wellbeing.
Led by friendly and experienced volunteers, these activities are designed to help you explore places in the borough, stay active and meet people. Walks take place daily, while cycle rides run weekly and there’s something for everyone.
 Join our countryside volunteer teams and help protect the local environment
We are looking for new volunteers to join our dedicated groups working across Claygate Common and Weybridge Heath.
With 20 local sites under our care, volunteers play a vital role in habitat management, helping us achieve more for local wildlife, the natural environment and the community. No experience is necessary, just enthusiasm and a willingness to learn. Training, tools and refreshments are provided.
 Upcoming activities for children this summer
We have lots of fun and free activities available for children and families across Elmbridge.
Coming up over the next week we have:
