Surrey Info Hub - Changing local councils

Big changes are coming to how councils are structured across large parts of England — including Surrey.

Right now, Surrey has 12 separate borough, district and county councils. The government is proposing a new system that would replace them with fewer, newly created councils. These changes could be introduced within the next two years.

To help residents stay informed, a new website has been launched with clear, factual information about what’s happening.
