Residents are being invited to have their say on a new skatepark in Horley.

A meeting is being held with builders Bendcrete Skateparks on Monday 18th July at Edmonds Hall in Albert Road.

It is an opportunity for people to find out more details and have an input into the design.

The meeting gets underway at 6pm.

In the the Penultimate week of Operation Dragonfly, 13 people have been charged with drink and drug-driving offences in Sussex and Surrey.

The operation which is to crack down on drink and drug-driving offences, began last month.

The campaign saw officers out on patrol actively looking for driving offences and behaviour behind the wheel that may be caused by the driver taking intoxicating substances.

Alongside the 13 people charged, a further nine have been arrested – five are on bail pending further enquiries and four have been released without charge.

Managers on Southern rail have had to work as conductors on a reduced timetable that was brought in to cope with disruption, the RMT union has said.

The union, which is in dispute with the firm Govia Thameslink (GTR) over guards’ roles, said managers with the correct safety certification had been “press-ganged” into working on trains.

The new timetable which was brought in this week has seen 341 trains axed each day. Southern previously ran over 2000 services each weekday.

Angry commuters staged a demonstration at London Victoria on Monday.

The Resources Committee and Tandridge District Council has agreed to set up a scheme to give council tax discounts for up to three months to homeowners who have had to leave their homes due to flood damage.

Since the flash flooding last month, 32 families have left their homes and over 70 households have reported either internal or garden flooding.

Anyone who has left their property due to flood damage and cannot claim their council tax costs from their insurers can apply for the discount.

This process can take up to two months and while Council officers cannot apply to the Valuation Office on behalf of residents, they will be available to help them complete the forms if needed.
