Wraysbury Parish Council Election and Do we keep the Hub?

Posted on April 8, 2026April 8, 2026 by ecwlarcombe

It looks like there is an opportunity for a by-election to fill a vacancy on Wraysbury Parish Council.  Look out for the official notice on the RBWM elections web page.

The current big issue is – ‘Do we keep the Hub’ (the former Baptist Church – located in Wraysbury High Street and used as a community building)?

P.S. Thank you for your signatures
