The Local Government Boundary Commission for England is asking for your views on the electoral review of Essex. The review will agree new electoral divisions across the county council.

• Do you have suggestions about where your division boundaries should be?
• Where do people in your area go to access local facilities, such as shops and leisure activities?

Felsted is currently in the Thaxted division and the results of the consultation could lead to Felsted moving into another district in Essex. It is therefore very important to have your say.

The consultation closes on 5th June 2023

We have been made aware that scam emails from ku.hsirapobfsctd-913d3c@troppus-ecivres have been sent to some businesses, service providers and organisations that are listed in the ‘Directory’ of some parish council websites in the UK, including some in Felsted.

The message claims that their business listing expires soon and they should follow options to renew, which requires banking details to be entered.

This is a scam.

Felsted Parish Council does not charge to list businesses, service providers and organisations on this website.

Please delete any emails received from ku.hsirapobfsctd-7ea689@troppus-ecivres – we believe that they are attempting to gather banking details from organisations under false pretenses.
